“The story of Angel Violet helps children sweep away their negative emotions. Author Bonnie Snyder has included Parents Notes throughout the book, to guide parents in discussing emotions with their children. The questions are designed to help kids get in touch not only with their feelings, both happy and yucky, but also with their own inner wisdom. Great stocking stuffer for highly sensitive/intuitive children!”

 “A delightful book that helps children focus on their happy and yucky feelings, and identify where the feeling is located in their body –heart, tummy, head or back. The author shows children and parents healthy ways to bond through conversation, mindfulness, and exercises that include visualization and gratitude”.

“Angel Violet’s Magic Wings was given to my grandchildren as a gift. It’s a wonderful way to overcome the issues they encounter. I love reminding them to call on her so they can sparkle again.”

“Angel Violet’s Magic Wings” is a beautifully illustrated little book to help parents foster loving communication, and inner peace through a a prism of sparkling colors in their young children.”

“Angel Violet is so simple and lovely that she creates a feeling of safety especially when children are most vulnerable. This is much more than a children’s book – it is a tool that can be used to help change the paradigm of how children are viewed. Instead of being perceived as bad or misbehaving, parents have the opportunity to shift themselves into a higher state of awareness and see their children as perfection in need of gentle guidance to seek their own inner wisdom and peace. May Angel Violet fly free and touch children with Peace and Grace.”

“My daughter liked the pictures and exercises with Angel Violet. It calmed her down and empowered her to take charge of her emotions.”

“Angel Violet’s Magic offers a gentle way to help children with their emotions and energy state. I especially love the message that even though the child is unhappy or grumpy that their sparkles aren’t lost – they are still an amazing kid, no matter what. It is great that with each read there is potential for something new to be offered by way of parent-to-child connection and the sharing of information and experience. Taking a short moment to be with a child, giving them a positive message about themselves, and being open to what they have to share is priceless. Lucky are the children who have parents helping them to sparkle brightly!”

“‘Wasn’t that a great story, Mama?’ were the first words out of my son’s mouth after I read him Angel Violet’s Magic Wings for the first time. I have never heard him say anything like that and I have to say, I agreed completely. Bonnie’s book is absolutely charming and unique. It’s a lovely analogy for describing how kids feel when they are happy (sparkly!) and sad/frustrated/angry/lonely etc. (cloudy sparkles). Along with the story, Bonnie has included all kinds of suggestions for ways that parents and caregivers can talk to their kids about their feelings. These kinds of discussions are beneficial for kids and are crucial for developing emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and relaxation skills.”

“As a child specialist for many years (decades), what I appreciate most about Bonnie Snyder’s Angel Violet’s Magic Wings (AMVW) book is that in such a whimsical way, it follows two major components of strong mental health: Alignment with a Higher Power for strength and guidance and Self-Competency to make favorable changes in one’s life.”

“Now we understand how to clear our minds and bodies when we are sad or upset. We’ll be calling Angel Violet to help us.”

“My children get it and feel empowered when they call upon Angel Violet. I also love the language and suggested questions for conversion that Bonnie provides. As parents and caregivers we don’t always know how to relate these complex subjects in a context that young children can understand. Bonnie incorporates these resources and suggestions right alongside the story, so it is easily accessible when you want to take the subject deeper. Highly recommend this book for all children!”

“What a wonderful little book that teaches children how to dissipate distress, make peace with their emotions, and access higher power. While the process presented appears magical, it is actually rooted in common sense principles of energy, mindfulness, visualization, emotion coaching, and supporting a healthy bond between caregiver and child. Read it with your child and most likely you will also benefit from it yourself.”

“Angel Violet’s Magic Wings offers a beautiful story (plus parent notes) to teach children how to shift from feeling bad to feeling safe.

 This (book) offers the children an awareness of their emotions and a specific positive way of dealing with those emotions!”

“The idea behind Angel Violet is beautiful. Through visualisation and conscious breathing Angel Violet helps brighten children’s sparkles – by calming them and giving their emotions a name and a place to put them. The book is cleverly written, beautifully illustrated with images that children will really relate to. Bonnie Snyder… has succeeded in crafting a wonderful tool for highly sensitive children.”

“As a mother of such a sensitive little soul, it was heartbreaking to not know what to do to help my little angel keep her energy cleared and herself grounded. How do you teach a two year old to clear their energy?!? ANGEL VIOLET’S MAGIC WINGS!! This book was recommended to me for helping my little one and it has been a dream come true. It has become my daughter’s favorite nightly bed time story and has helped mom to teach my little one how to “clear the dust from her sparkles”. Such a great book to help these little souls. “ – Amazon Reviewer
