In My Heart

Reach for this book when your child is overwhelmed by a whirlwind of emotions and lacks the words to describe what is happening inside. Whether they are dealing with a sudden outburst of anger or a quiet moment of sadness, this book provides a lyrical map for navigating the complex interior landscape of a growing child. It uses relatable metaphors, like a heart feeling as heavy as an elephant or as light as a balloon, to validate every mood as natural and temporary. Designed for toddlers and preschoolers, the story explores themes of joy, fear, calmness, and bravery through the perspective of a young girl. Parents will appreciate how it treats emotions not as problems to be solved, but as visitors to be welcomed and understood. It is an essential tool for building emotional intelligence and fostering open communication during those formative years when 'big feelings' can feel scary for both parent and child.
