A comforting book about feeling scared.
How are you feeling today? Children experience all kinds of feelings in a single day, but they can't always name them or talk about them easily.
In When I Feel Scared the main character uses a flashlight to ease their fears and thinks happy thoughts to calm down.
Developed in conjunction with a child psychologist, these board books focus on the six main emotions experienced by very young children. Featuring non-gendered characters and avoiding stereotypical associations of color and emotion, each book introduces the child to the feelings raised by one emotion. Coping strategies are discussed where necessary. Written with both neurodivergent and neurotypical readers in mind. This series of books can be used to develop emotional intelligence from a young age, as the emotions are labelled and relatable experiences are used to help young children make connections between their emotions and what might trigger them.
