"Bright, fun, interactive board book perfect for helping children explore their emotions"
Happy, grumpy, excited, sad, safe, scared, joyful, angry, proud, embarrassed: little children are prompted to think about, discuss and understand all these emotions through the pages of this brightly illustrated board book. What’s more, they’re shown that they can choose whether to be happy as a lamb or grumpy as a goat, both moods unmistakable in the pictures of an energetic roller-skating lamb on one side of a press out piece and a thoroughly grumpy goat – arms crossed – on the reverse.
Now they know how they’re feeling, text hidden under the press out pieces suggests ways to turn negative emotions into positive ones, e.g. jumping around pretending to be your favourite animal is likely to banish any grumpiness and magnify joy. There’s an equally good suggestion for turning you from being sad as a sick bunny to excited as a puppy.
Well-constructed, appealing to look at, this board book will be very useful as a conversation starter and learning tool. The press out pieces pack neatly back into their slots to keep them safe and in place for repeat readings.
