"This six-step toolkit for developing and using empathy skills has the potential to transform lives"
June 2023 Book of the Month
Written in partnership with EmpathyLab, a cross-disciplinary organisation devoted to using stories to develop young people’s experience of empathy, Rashmi Sirdeshpande’s We've Got This! provides users with an informative, interactive, inspirational toolkit for living their best empathetic lives.
“If there’s something we need in this world now more than ever, it is empathy” – these wise words come from Michael Morpurgo’s introduction, in which he also states that “Books and stories to me are the key to empathy and understanding for everyone. They are the pathway to understanding people as individuals.”
In this context, We've Got This! sets out six steps to help kids build their “empathy superpower”, with chapters running through what empathy is, how it works, how to use it out in the wild, how to recognise emotions, how to be a brilliant communicator and, finally, how to “become the ULTIMATE empathy hero!”
Packed with activities and examples, and supported by clear design and engaging illustrations, readers will come away enriched, and armed with everything they need to become a more empathetic person.

We've Got This! Seven Steps to Build your Empathy Superpower, written in partnership with EmpathyLab, is the essential empathy handbook for young readers.
The emotional well-being of children is just as important as their physical health but it's not something that all children are taught about or are offered support for. Understanding empathy and growing emotional intelligence allows children and young people to develop the resilience to cope with whatever life throws at them and grow into well-rounded, healthy adults.
This essential handbook, created in collaboration with EmpathyLab, the UK's leading empathy research organisation, includes:
Accessible tools for building empathy skills
Packed with case studies that children can relate to and learn from for real life scenarios
