Reviews
"Perfectly pitched, gorgeously illustrated and told simply but with sophistication, this is a must-have picture book... a superb exploration of feelings, articulated in a way that even the very young will understand; a book to evoke the strongest feelings of recognition in child and adult reader, and full of humour too" * LoveReading, Best Children's Books of 2021 *
"This engaging picture book, with delightful canine characters, explores difficult emotions with young children, helping them to develop empathy and emotional awareness... Colourful illustrations will help young children to understand how Ravi feels and could encourage discussion about how readers might behave in a similar situation." * BookTrust *
