How are you feeling, Little Mouse?

About this book

Join Little Mouse in a conversation about emotions. Mouse lists the physical symptoms of feelings – having butterflies when excited, for instance – and asks the reader what makes them feel excited, or happy or sad. This interactive approach, combined with the friendly pastel illustrations, means that toddlers have a prompt to recognise and to talk about their feelings. The simple, repetitive text provides a soothing framework for discussion, and the final page, about feeling content, is a calm ending.

This is a chunky square board book, sturdy enough to endure some knocks from small hands. It could prove very useful for instigating conversations about feelings and how we react to them.

It is also available in Welsh, as Sut wyt ti’n teimlo, Llygoden Fach?
