In 'Big Emotions:Mindful Music for Little People' the author and singer-songwriter, Laura Loft, has produced a beautiful audio book for three to seven year olds, to help them recognise and start to control the powerful emotions they feel. The book is colourfully illustrated by Nia Gould.
Little Boy sets out on an adventure with Cat and along the way experiences many different situations that evoke strong feelings such as fear, anger, disgust and sadness. Through the lyrical text and therapeutic music and songs, the young reader comes to see that by talking about whatever they are struggling with, they can begin to manage and come to terms with it. These are important discoveries and life lessons for long term mental health.
This is a small book physically but huge in it's ambition, breadth of content and importance for the future of this lockdown generation.
