Jomo Jesus Thomas Suriel, an 8-year-old prodigy, is on a mission to help children’s mental health with his children’s picture books for young children ages 4 to 8. The bilingual homeschooled New Yorker has won two Readers’ Favorite Awards and two Mom’s Choice Awards for his positive mental health books, The Emotions Volcano and The Angry Vacuum. 

The inspirational author of The Emotions Volcano and The Angry Vacuum helps teach children to manage emotions and feelings through adventures and fun stories dealing with themes of school tests, space travel, artificial intelligence (A.I.) , and STEM.   He is on a mission to improve mental health and emotional literacy for young school children.  He has been giving 100 copies of his mental health books away each month to kids and parents through GoodReads.  His goal is to reach millions of school children to help them learn the importance of developing emotional intelligence skills.

The young hero has become transformative in children's literature, tackling the difficult subjects of managing stress in school, self-awareness, mindfulness, social awareness, and self-regulation. He inspires children and neurodivergent kids, as well as parents and teachers, to learn the importance of emotional intelligence with his Sid the Super Happy Kid and Laura The Emotions Explorer picture books on emotional intelligence.  Jomo Jesus says,  “I’m on a mission to improve mental health for school children all over the world and I wish that all children can learn to manage their emotions and the power of emotional intelligence. I hope to  donate and give away thousands of my books and eventually have cartoons based on my Sid and Laura the Emotions Explorer books to teach and inspire millions about the importance of emotional Intelligence.”
