Reach for this book when your toddler or preschooler is caught in the whirlwind of a 'big emotion' day, where small setbacks feel like disasters and small joys feel like triumphs. It is an essential tool for those moments when a child is struggling to bridge the gap between what they feel and the words they have available to describe it. Mimi follows a charming little pig through a series of relatable everyday events, from the frustration of a broken toy to the cozy comfort of a parent's hug. The book uses tactile, soft-sculpture illustrations that provide a sensory-rich experience, making emotions feel grounded and manageable. By normalizing the rapid shifts in a young child's mood, it provides a gentle framework for parents to validate their child's feelings without judgment, fostering emotional intelligence and resilience in the early years.
