Starter Stacy and Finisher Finn

Inside Cortex Castle, some tasks feel too big to begin, and others feel too hard to finish. That is when Starter Stacy and Finisher Finn step in. Stacy helps you take one small first step, and Finn helps you keep going when the middle feels like a wall. In Starter Stacy and Finisher Finn, children learn that starting and finishing work best as a team. With small steps, gentle encouragement, and a little help from Frontal Fred, the brain learns to move from a tricky beginning all the way to a proud finish. Through playful rhyme and imaginative storytelling, children discover that beginning and finishing are skills the brain builds with practice, one small step at a time. Plus, every book includes bonus learning material: a Teacher and Parent Guide, kid-friendly explainers, discussion starters, hands-on visual activities, and curated resources, giving grown-ups simple, science-backed ways to keep the learning going long after the last page.
