Marion Dreadon, The Bookseller NZ
These beautifully illustrated books are designed to lead children through issues that they may find challenging, especially from an emotional point of view.

There are 5 books plus a guide that helps the adult/adults work through different issues with activities that are designed for specific areas such as craft activities, physical exercises and drama games. The books' reach is broad but everything is neatly tied together.

The story books that accompany the guide book are simply gorgeous, the illustrations perfectly fitting the text. Finding Calm, Self Confidence, Making Relationships, Anxiety and Fears and Change, Loss and Grief cover a lot of ground but it is ground that can often be a part of a child's life on a daily basis and not in a good way. These books step in and provide support, comfort and solutions that are relatable and reasonably easy to make a part of a child's emotional thinking. Changing our thinking is really what it boils down to when we face an issue that grips and won't let go, and these books are an excellent tool/resource to help us do so.



Designed for the 4-7 year age group, this resource could be a great at-home resource and a very valuable resource for any Primary School.
