Reviews

A lovely series of books with colourful illustrations and interactive pages that encourage children to explore and share their emotions. The wheels, flaps and sliders provided great discussion points and are great for reading together as they raise a lot of questions to get the whole family talking about their feelings. -- Dr Amanda Gummer * Dr Gummer's Good Play Guide *
