This Makes Me Sad

This Makes Me Sad Synopsis

This Makes Me Sad follows a young boy after he accidentally lets his dog, Kit, loose from the yard. Despite his parents' attempt to find her, nothing can cheer up the boy. His favourite things, like a pretty sunset, going to the park, and his beloved teddy bear, just make him more sad.

Even happy memories of Kit no longer feel good. With help from his family, the boy must learn to accept and express how he's feeling inside. And by dealing with his feelings, he might just be able to do some good until Kit comes home.

Easy-to-read text and evocative illustrations make this relatable second story in the Dealing with Feelings series a perfect practice in emotional maturity for kids.
