Book SynopsisA remarkable book ... simple but never over-simplified. Observer
An invaluable tool for parents struggling to cope with children's changing moods. No home or school should be without this book. Lancashire Evening Post
A warm, gentle book for young children who sometimes struggle to express what they''re feeling. Amanda McCardie''s supremely sensitive text explores different emotions through the eyes of two young children. Over the course of the narrative, Sam and Kate experience feeling happy, grumpy, embarrassed, shy, nervous, frightened, sad, angry and jealous Salvatore Rubbino''s beautiful pictures show the children in many different situations at home and at school, while the text explores how emotions can change over time, escalating or fading away. A book full of warmth and reassurance, and a brilliant tool for parents and carers.
As a gentle, perceptive and useful examination of feelings, this cannot be bettered.
Trade Review
Lovely sensitive text and rich illustrations alive with movement. * Green Parent *
It can be very hard to talk about how we feel, so a picture book that sets out to explain that everyone experiences a whole range of feelings and emotions is a great addition to any child’s bookshelf. […] This is a great book for sharing and talking about with children of all ages. * Carousel *
