by Courtney Joaquin (Author)

TOO MUCH! is a confidence-building picture book for kids ages 2-8 that helps children develop self-esteem, emotional intelligence, and comfort with big feelings, while learning they are exactly enough just as they are.

Created for parents, teachers, and caregivers raising thoughtful, expressive children, this social-emotional learning (SEL) picture book helps kids embrace who they are, trust themselves, and stop worrying about being "too much."

This children's book helps kids:

• Build self-esteem and emotional confidence
• Understand and express big feelings in healthy ways
• Practice self-acceptance without changing who they are
• Develop emotional intelligence and self-trust
• Feel seen, valued, and confident in their uniqueness

Perfect for ages 2-8, this book is ideal for families, classrooms, therapists, counselors, and caregivers supporting social-emotional learning, mindfulness, and confidence in children.

The story:

Meet Courtney, a joyful little girl who shows up as her full self in every situation. Along the way, she's labeled with words many children hear far too early: too loud, too quiet, too bold, too sensitive, too curious, too much.

Instead of shrinking herself, Courtney keeps exploring, growing, and becoming.

With every page, children learn a powerful truth:
When you stop worrying about fitting in, you start discovering who you are.

More than a bedtime story:

TOO MUCH! is more than a children's boo;. It's a tool for building confidence and emotional resilience.

Parents, teachers, and caregivers use this book to:
- Start conversations about feelings and identity
- Support self-esteem and emotional growth
- Encourage kids to trust themselves
- Reinforce that being different is not something to fix

Whether your child is sensitive, bold, imaginative, expressive-or all of the above-this book delivers a message every child deserves to hear:

• You don't need to be less to belong
• You don't need permission to be yourself
• You are not too much
• You are perfectly enough

A meaningful gift for children who feel different, highly sensitive kids, confident kids, curious kids, and children learning to love who they are.
