Rabbit's Instincts is part of the grade school series of books that help children understand and effectively manage social and emotional challenges that are commonly faced once children start going to school. Independent and valid, evidence-based research is combined with the author's ten years as a counselor to at-risk youth and 20+ years as a mentor to young people to shape the content of every grade school story. The goal is not to replace counseling, but to plant seeds and provide some basic education that children can use in practical ways.
