What They Don't Teach in School. The Most Important Things for Teens in One Book

A book of infographics for children and teenagers.
***
A navigator for growing up wisely, which was so lacking in childhood.
What would we want to know in childhood? What would we want our children to know? What is so important to discuss, but seems too early at 6 and maybe too late at 12, during the separation process?
***
Outside of the school curriculum, and sometimes even home communication, many questions remain that shape a child's personality: Who am I? What is my value? What is my calling? Do I have goals and how to set them? What are emotions and how to deal with them? How to communicate, make friends, love, how to speak and listen to be heard.
School also does not teach important life skills: how to be organized, make a presentation, come up with something new, work in a team, manage a personal budget; how to understand your body and maintain health.
***
We included answers to these and many other questions in a book of infographics for young people aged 9 and up. Each spread, in an engaging visual form (almost like a comic, but deeper), introduces the child to the area of soft skills, helps them realize and start working on their own. Soft skills are formed throughout life, but especially actively in childhood, during the period of social connection establishment.
