NEW! The Restricted Adventures of Raja
Empathy App Book
The Restricted Adventures of Raja is a groundbreaking series of books to help kids practice the three steps needed for empathy.

The Restricted Adventures of Raja is a digital book series about animals and emotions that helps kids consider the well-being of others. Book 1 has transformed from an app to a more accessible downloadable PDF containing a continuing adventure story in a graphic novel format. The questions in the accompanying teaching guide encourage conversations with kids that help them recognize emotional states, share emotional states through self- and social awareness, and regulate emotions to make better decisions and build stronger relationships. The books were written by Nicole Forsyth, RedRover’s former President and CEO, and was developed in partnership with Sticky Brain Studios, Inc.
“I can’t tell you how much my middle school students are enjoying the digital book! I’ve never seen them so engaged.”
– Nikki, Speech-Language Pathologist
