All The Feelings
When a child's Feelings grow so big they stomp and roar like a bear, everything feels out of control. In this warm and playful picture book, children learn to notice, name and befriend their emotions. A beautifully illustrated hardback that supports emotional literacy at home and in the classroom.
One day, a child's Feelings grow so big they jump out "like a bear" - stomping, roaring, squeezing and spinning everything into chaos. No matter how hard they try to shout them away or throw them in the bin, the Feelings won't leave.
In this engaging and empowering story, the child discovers a different approach. By slowing down, sitting with their Feelings and giving each one a name, they begin to understand that even the loudest, silliest, angriest emotions are allowed to be there.
Written by Gillian Breckell and illustrated with warmth and humour by Julie Smith-Belton, 'All the Feelings' helps children develop emotional awareness and regulation in a way that feels accessible and reassuring. The lively, expressive artwork transforms abstract emotions into memorable characters children can recognise and relate to.
Produced as a stunning hardback, this beautifully crafted picture book is ideal for children aged 4-8 and provides a valuable tool for parents, caregivers and educators supporting emotional literacy and wellbeing.
