The Hazardous Harold Learning Ecosystem
One story. Three perspectives
A complete Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) system for ages 8–13.
Bridging the Gap Between Home and School
The Misadventures of Hazardous Harold is more than a children’s book series.
It’s a thoughtfully designed learning ecosystem that supports readers, parents, and educators together — using the same stories, in age-appropriate ways.
Each Harold book delivers a shared life lesson, explored through three connected learning pathways, so growth is reinforced at home, at school, and within the child.
🎯 THE PROBLEM PARENTS AND EDYCATORS FACE 🎯
🎯 As a Parent:
- You want your child to grow—emotionally, socially, academically
- You know reading together matters, but you're not sure how to make conversations meaningful
- You feel like you should be doing more to support development, but you don't know what
- You want character education but you're tired of preachy books or worksheets that feel like punishment
- You're looking for books that are genuinely funny AND teach real lessons
- You want resources that make parenting easier, not harder
🎯 As an Educator:
- You have limited prep time but standards to meet
- You want to teach the whole child—academics AND social-emotional learning
- You need materials that are engaging but also rigorous
- You want resources that differentiate for diverse learners
- You're looking for books that connect home and school learning
- You want assessment tools that are authentic, not just worksheets
