In How to Have a Good Day, economist and former McKinsey partner Caroline Webb shows readers how to use recent findings from behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience to transform our approach to everyday working life. Advances in behavioral sciences are giving us an ever better understanding of how our brains work, why we make the choices we do, and what it takes for us to be at our best. But it has not always been easy to see how to apply these insights in the real world--until now. In How to Have a Good Day, Webb explains exactly how to apply this science to our daily tasks and routines. She translates three big scientific ideas into step-by-step guidance that shows us how to set better priorities, make our time go further, ace every interaction, be our smartest selves, strengthen our personal impact, be resilient to setbacks, and boost our energy and enjoyment. Through it all, Webb teaches us how to navigate the typical challenges of modern workplaces—from conflict with colleagues to dull meetings and overflowing inboxes—with skill and ease. Filled with stories of people who have used Webb’s insights to boost their job satisfaction and performance at work, How to Have a Good Day is the book so many people wanted when they finished Nudge, Blink and Thinking Fast and Slow and were looking for practical ways to apply this fascinating science to their own lives and careers. A remarkable and much-needed book, How to Have a Good Day gives us the tools we need to have a lifetime of good days.

The Shy Little Monster began as a children's song created by Stephanie Leavell. Stephanie - a mom, music educator, and Berklee-trained music therapist - wanted to create a sweet and silly (not scary!) Halloween song that would delight her preschool music groups. Illustrator Sarah Pilar Echeverria and Stephanie are friends (they were born on the same day, in the same hospital, but became friends much later!) who bonded over their love of creating. Sarah is a mom of two with a lifelong passion for art and an everlasting love for children's books. She hopes her own illustrations can spark excitement and creativity in kids. This book shows kids that it's okay to be shy (so are Stephanie and Sarah!), it's okay to ask for help and, most importantly, good friends are always there to offer some encouragement and help you find your voice.
