“A close friend moving away, a much-missed pet: some sadness is too big to brush off. This one lets it be big for a while, and that honesty is what helps.”
A deep breath, a clicking crab and a little less sadness.
When I Feel Sad is a comforting picture book that helps children understand sadness and find small ways to feel better.
A child describes how sadness can grow until it is all they can see, wherever they look. Sometimes it feels like being "the only person in the whole, wide world". Then the child takes a deep breath and watches something alive, like a flower, a beetle or a crab, until the sadness eases a little.
Why children love it
- A tiny rowing boat drifting above the shadow of a giant whale.
- An underwater world of bright fish, an octopus, crabs and a jellyfish.
- A gentle reminder to look around at all the bright, colourful things.
