About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their child is experiencing big, overwhelming emotions that seem difficult to name or manage, such as sudden outbursts of anger or deep pockets of sadness. Rather than providing clinical advice, this collection uses the power of metaphorical storytelling to help children process their inner world. Each tale features relatable characters navigating emotional hurdles, allowing children to observe coping strategies from a safe, imaginative distance. This book is particularly effective because it treats feelings as visitors rather than enemies. The gentle, fairy-tale quality makes it an ideal choice for bedtime reading or quiet reflection with children aged 3 to 8. Parents will appreciate how the stories provide a common vocabulary for discussing bravery and resilience without being overly didactic. It is a soothing tool for normalizing the ups and downs of growing up.
