In My Heart: A Book of Feelings

In My Heart: A Book of Feelings

Starring the same little girl in the same charming illustration style as Hello In There!, In My Heart explores emotions--happiness, sadness, bravery, anger, shyness and more. Unlike other feelings books that tend to oversimplify, In My Heart lyrically explains what an emotion feels like, physically, inside. For example: "When I get really angry, my heart feels like it's going to explode! Don't come near me! My heart is yelling, hot and loud. This is when my heart is mad." Toddlers will be empowered by this new vocabulary and able to practice articulating and identifying their own emotions. On the cover and the right side of each spread, a die-cut heart decreases in size, creating a multi-coloured heart the depth of the entire book.

Review: "With flaps to lift throughout, it's a book about giving and receiving with surprises throughout. This book of sharing is part of the Growing Hearts series celebrating the milestones of a toddler's emotional development." -- The Big Issue
