Plus grand que le ciel

Description

Remi is one manic squirrel!

Scampering here and scampering there, he's a fluffball of constant motion. Whether he's at home, in school, or out on the town, Remi never stays in one place. Even his thoughts come and go at a wildly rapid pace.

With too much energy and too little focus, Remi finds himself in all kinds of trouble. School assignments go missing because his backpack and desk are messy, bottomless blackholes. Some homework never gets done because his tablet and TV prove too tempting.

My desk is a mess, my cubby's a wreck
and my backpack's a giant black hole.
It's swallowing snacks, pencils, and papers,
like a vortex that's totally out of control!

Even the class field trip nearly ends in disaster when Remi has a run-in with an exhibit made out of glass!

Will Remi ever be able to calm his mind and his body long enough to get organized, stay on task, and actually have success?

Children will laugh as they follow Remi through his whirlwind day, scrambling to find his things and stay on task. With help, he learns to slow down, stay organized, and relax and reset. Remi in Overdrive is the newest tale in author Ashley Bartley's popular Diamond, Opal and Friends series, which includes: :

Diamond Rattle Loves to Tattle - Diamond is a snake and a snitch, but she learns that there are times when she should alert an adult, and times to ignore a problem or solve it on your own.

Opal Octopus is Overwhelmed - Opal is struggling to manage all her commitments. She learns that she simply needs to R.E.S.E.T. and prioritize what's really important.
Written for students in Grades PreK-5, the series empowers readers with lessons about self-care, self-control, and self-determination. Included are tips for parents, counselors, and educators on how to help children stay organized, stay on task, and calm their mind and body. This story is great for children who have ADHD or simply too much energy.
