Reflection and Comments
This is a simple book with excellent illustrations that teaches children how to recognise their bodies’ reactions when they are nervous, anxious, or unsafe. It’s a great way to start a conversation with young children about how their feelings can be warning signs that should be communicated to a trusted adult. Because the written portion and the pictures are so well linked, it is a fun and simple way to learn.
