Little Monkey Calms Down (Hello Genius) Review: A gem! - Little Monkey Calms Down is one of the few books that our energetic 20-month-old granddaughter will sit still long enough for us to read to her! A simple, sweet, storyline that she can relate to. A great opening to talk about ways she can manage her toddler-size sad-angry feelings. Review: Super Cool Book On Calming, Expressions Easy To Recognize and Relate to for our Autistic Son - Ok, I actually really, really love this book. However, that being said, some of the strategies mentioned are not exactly as useful as I'd hoped for my son. So I purchased this as a reading support for our son, who is 5, non-verbal, and has some more specialized needs. We've been working on helping him to habituate strategies for self calming that don't involve self harming. This book came today. So, little monkey's ice cream falls off his cone and he is upset. Super, super upset. Like, dramatically "ka-boom!" kind of upset...just like our little man gets. So I loved that. I loved that the word structure is simple, it makes it easier for a child who has language delays or processing issues to relate to quicker, although for our son, his receptive language is actually functioning at a much higher level then his expressive. But I think the simplified sentences helped him get into it more. He actually looked at it the first time I read it...I think probably because he could relate to the problem (having himself just lost part of his popsicle today in a similar manner) and the level of upsetedness shown by little monkey. The illustrations really over emphasize the expressions, which is perfect for a kiddo with Autism who may struggle to get more subtle cues, like my little dude. The first thing it suggests little monkey try is cuddle a blanket. My son actually went and grabbed one of his soft snuggly pillows and squeezed it after I read it, so I loved that, I'm actually super excited and about ready to pass out from the happiness that reaction caused. The rest of the suggestions are a little trickier for a special needs kiddo and may need parental embellishment to tailor them. So little monkey tries taking a breath, singing a quite song, laying down and being quiet. So, my kiddo can take a deep breath if prompted, but he doesn't find that calming. He can't sing songs himself independently yet, so that's a stage that would need assistance from us, and I want him to feel like calming is in his power. I did sing to him a song during that part, because I want to keep him engaged in that book, but yah, I prefer to emphasize other strategies for him. And for the laying down part, little monkey is shown holding a spinning windmill type toy, so that's where I adlibbed and said "or spin on your chair, or bounce on your ball," etc. because those are suggestions that would actually be more effective for my son. Honestly, I'm just over the moon because of how he internalized suggestion number one. I think this book has a lot of merits and is super cute, but all of the suggestions may not work for every child, but I think the overall message that calming down is in his control comes through, and I love it. Totally, totally love it! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 1479522864 | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,201 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Children's Daily Activities Books #14 in Children's Manners Books #72 in Children's Books on Emotions & Feelings (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (5,047) | | Dimensions | 8 x 0.5 x 8 inches | | Edition | Board Book | | Grade level | 1 - 2 | | ISBN-10 | 9781479522866 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1479522866 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Part of series | Hello Genius | | Print length | 20 pages | | Publication date | January 31, 2014 | | Publisher | Picture Window Books | | Reading age | 1 - 3 years, from customers | ## Images ![Little Monkey Calms Down (Hello Genius) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qrLshHLML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A gem! *by M***. on February 17, 2026* Little Monkey Calms Down is one of the few books that our energetic 20-month-old granddaughter will sit still long enough for us to read to her!
