From the best-selling author of How Are You Feeling Today? comes a picture book that sensitively deals with developing emotional intelligence in young children and supports them to manage difficult emotions.

Young children can find it really frustrating when they are unable to express their emotions. Molly Potter covers a range of different emotions to help children name and explain exactly what they are feeling. Written to encourage children not to suppress their emotions, this picture book teaches little ones to acknowledge enjoyable feelings and get better at responding to unenjoyable ones.

Perfect for starting those all-important conversations, It’s OK to Cry includes colourful illustrations, child-friendly strategies and vocabulary for managing feelings and helpful notes for parents, carers and practitioners.

Let’s Talk books help you start meaningful conversations with your child. Written by an expert and covering topics like feelings, relationships, diversity and mental health, these comforting picture books support healthy discussion right from the start.
