About this ebook

Key Selling Points
  • A sweet, simple board book about the big feelings kids have, from anger to shyness to sadness, to help readers learn to recognize their feelings and realize that overwhelming as they may be, all emotions do pass.
  • Delightful photos accompanying the text show each feeling, so that the youngest readers can identify exactly what the feelings word means.
  • Simple text gives relatable, age-appropriate examples of what might bring out each emotion, such as meeting a new friend (shyness) or having your blocks fall down (frustration).
  • Besides recognizing feelings, the text reassures kids that all emotions will pass, a starting point in understanding emotional regulation and accepting, rather than fighting, feelings as they come.
  • An author's note expresses how just as adults teach the kids in their lives skills like brushing their teeth, guiding children through their emotions is also key—and this book can be a tool in that conversation.
  • Jillian Roberts is a highly respected child psychologist, professor at the University of Victoria, writer and mother of three. She is the author of the Just Enough series, The World Around Us series and The Friendship Guide.
