The book: Psaris, the gray horse, can’t find peace from the annoying horseflies. Nor can Doris, the red horse. They swish their tails to drive them away! But they are… there! “There are so many that one must have two tails,” sighs Doris. “But where can we find two tails?” he then thinks. “Easy!” says Psaris. “You’ve given me an idea!” and he devises a plan in no time. How nice it is now without the horseflies biting them! But how did they manage to keep them away? “The two tails” is an adaptation of a story once told by grandmother. The series: In order to ensure that children have a healthy social life grounded in effective relationships, they must cultivate empathy, the ability to put themselves in someone else’s shoes, to understand and feel things the same way another person does. This need is addressed by the illustrated books in this series, which promote emotional intelligence. With the suggested approach for parents and educators, they attempt to introduce children to see the world through the eyes of others, once they first learn to recognize and manage their own feelings. The series "Books that Promote Emotional Intelligence" consists of 30 books.
