"An especially useful book for children and adults to share to help children understand their behaviour and how it affects others"
September 2022 Book of the Month
Brightly and attractively illustrated, Molly Potter’s book will help children think about different behaviours. It shows them how sometimes they will do things that are not helpful – to themselves or others around them – and why that might be.
It also demonstrates how we can choose to act differently, no matter how we’re feeling. It covers a dozen different behaviour choices, from telling lies or being honest, to giving up or being determined, to being grumpy or cheerful. On each double page it explains why you might choose one way to behave, but also shows which is the better option.
The open discussion format and the clear, appealing way of describing things will encourage children to talk and learn and will surely equip them to make better decisions in the future. Final pages contain notes for grown-ups too explaining how to use the book and apply the techniques it proposes. A book that will prove extremely useful to adults and children.

From the best-selling author of How Are You Feeling Today?, this thoughtful picture book teaches children how to find new ways of expressing themselves. A picture book for talking about behaviour and emotions with children.
