Big Feelings Stories for 6-Year-Olds

Six is a big year: a new classroom, a new baby sister, a new neighbor, games to win and games to lose. And with all that newness come big feelings.

In these 12 read-aloud stories, the lagoon friends from 30 Calm Nights meet real, everyday moments, name what they feel with the help of someone who cares, and try a simple way to calm down together.

Inside this book:

• 12 short stories, about 5 minutes each

• A feeling word in every story: nervous, embarrassed, frustrated, mad, jealous, brave, envy, guilty, empathy, upset, shy and butterflies in the tummy

• A simple calming tool to try together: palm press, balloon breathing, five birthday candles, purr breathing, dandelion breathing and more

• "Let's talk" questions to start family conversations

• A drawing page for every story and a star chart

• Full-color illustrations of Gabi, Guto, Bia, Pufi, Tuto, Tati, Cissa, Caio, Poli and Pepo

Read one story at bedtime, on a quiet afternoon or the night before something new. Every feeling is welcome here.
