Franklin Forgives - A Story and Game about Forgiveness

Franklin Forgives is about an angry little boy who has been mistreated. He holds on to his anger and lashes out at anyone who comes near. Hannah, a sweet girl in his class, reaches out to help him let go of his anger and find peace. The book addresses misconceptions about forgiveness such as feeling like the person gets away with it, obligation to restore the relationship, and feeling like they condone the wrong by forgiving.
The game incorporates cognitive behavioral skills to help overcome negative thoughts. There are 4 categories of cards: Anger, Friendship, Forgiveness, and Control your Thoughts. The anger cards focus on how to manage anger, express it appropriately, and use coping mechanisms to overcome triggers. The friendship cards highlight important relationships, conflict resolution, and finding ways to connect with others. The forgiveness cards address the misconceptions about forgiveness and offer an opportunity to explore personal situations that may need to be addressed. Finally, the control your thoughts cards focus on cognitive-behavioral skills.
