Book Description
Feel A Little is a colourful, character-filled book about big feelings for little ones. It features poems by Jenny Palmer, illustrated by Evie Kemp, in their first ever collaboration and they've partnered with Little Love to publish this heartfelt project into a bright, beautiful hardback book. Feel A Little features a rainbow of 14 important emotions, all explored through gorgeous 'read along' rhymes accompanied by cute characters. Feel A Little is perfect for reading to children from a young age, and for children aged 7-11 to read to you. Youth emotional and mental health are huge issues in our communities, with children maturing earlier and facing an isolating modern world with modern challenges. As a community we need to start focussing on understanding and encouraging communication around feelings from an early age - equipping children with the tools they need to best face the ups and downs (and in-betweens) of life. Parents, caregivers and educators need a variety of ways to encourage these conversations and the safe space of engaged reading together is a proven, effective beginning. Feel A Little creates poetic and imaginative word prompts and a visual language for emotions, providing a starting point for discussions that you can come back to again and again.
