Feel Your Happy

LoveReading4Kids Says

Emily Coxhead’s bright, uplifting and thoroughly positive book does exactly what it sets out to do and shows readers of any age – but particularly the youngest – how to feel their happy.

Narrated by a very small and cute animal (a sloth?), it offers practical appealing strategies for when things are too loud, ‘find somewhere quiet to be still and calm’; are just new or strange, ‘I take my softest teddy to snuggle so it smells of home’; or for when the world seems too bright, ‘I ask someone to read me a story’. It demonstrates with humour and in ways that even the very youngest will understand, how the world is full of new experiences, but that’s OK, and that by being proud, being yourself, you’ll feel your happy, whatever is going on around you.

It’s impossible not to be caught up in the joyful positivity of the text and illustrations, all warm colours, and smiling, happy little animals. Children who find the world too bright or loud, for whatever reason, will get a particular comfort from this book.
