Does your child only have one volume? One response to everything: push harder, get louder, force it through?You are not watching a bad kid. You are watching a child who has one very powerful tool and no idea there are others. And the harder the world pushes back, the louder they get, because loud has always worked before.Until it doesn't.Ares, the mighty god of war, has stomped through every battle the same way: bigger, faster, louder than everyone else. It has always been enough. Then the day comes when two giants trap him in chains and all his thunder, all his force, all his roaring cannot break him free. The only thing that saves him is the one thing he has never tried. Calm. Stillness. Thinking instead of fighting.He does not lose who he is. He becomes more.This book will not tell your child to stop being fierce. It will show them that the child who takes a breath before reacting is stronger than the one who always pushes first. That real power is knowing when to roar and when to go quiet. That the bravest warriors are not the loudest ones in the room.Read it once and they will enjoy the story.
