Reviews
A must-have for all primary classrooms and homes in which parents want their boys to be able to express how they are feeling in a calm and open manner. * Reading Zone *
The book deals with positive and negative feelings and how all children can take steps to deal with them. The illustrations are colourful, diverse and inclusive, pages are not too text heavy, and there are plenty of ideas and concepts to explore further. * The School Librarian *
