But imagine Gabe's surprise when his left shoe, Lefty, notices Gabe's restlessness and in a small voice gives him tips on how to be patient. What was even more surprising was when his right shoe, Lacey, pipes in to explain why it's important to practice patience, even when it's difficult.

Pause Power – Learning to stay calm when your buttons get pushed“I bought this book for my 4 and 6 year old. My 6 year old loves it so much! There’s so many scenarios that they relate to. Like being at school and waiting in line, etc. We also LOVE Pause Power! Pause Power even helps me lol!” - Rachelle, Verified Purchaser“This book is a wonderful addition to our self-esteem building sessions with after school children. Sometimes it is hard for them to be patient or for them to be energized to continue to do homework or enrichment; this book redirects their energy with concrete strategies and then reinforces them. We will also use this book and Pause Power by the same author and illustrator in our summer program with children. Meanwhile I will be looking forward to the next book about Gabe!” - Jean M., Purchaser
