• The Escape Rope Strategy: A concrete, actionable 3-step action plan for students to set physical boundaries, handle triggers, and regain agency over technology.
• Full Teacher’s Guide & Answer Key: Packed with red-ink sample answers and discussion prompts to guide tough classroom conversations effortlessly.

• Highly Visual: Beautifully illustrated to keep young learners engaged.
• Reality-Based: Focuses on honest reflections that lead to real-world behavioral changes.
