In this special Read Across America Week episode of The Motivational Mic, Jacob sits down with Andi Green to explore The Magic Inside the Pages: Helping Kids Navigate Big Feelings.

Through the power of storytelling — including lessons inspired by the The WorryWoo Monsters — Andi and Jacob highlight how books do more than teach children to read. They help kids understand emotions, build resilience, and feel seen in moments of worry, fear, and uncertainty.

Because sometimes the greatest growth doesn’t happen on the playground — it happens between the pages.
