My Feelings is a beautifully expressive but playful series looking at the most common, everyday feelings that young children have but often don't know how to channel or express. The first-person accounts of everyday situations that take place in a small child's life make this series appealing, and the clever use of background imagery, illustrative details and small speech bubbles make it unique and fun! When I'm Angry looks at everyday situations that children encounter such as sibling arguments or spoiled possessions, then goes on to suggest ways to channel the emotion and resolve it through activities and discussion. Each title has an interactive Do It! spread and teacher/parent's notes at the back of the book which get children imagining or role-playing situations - an excellent 'way in' to parental, one-to-one, group or class discussion. There are also further activities to try and examples of further reading. Downloadable material available.

Jealousy is a natural emotion when someone else has something that we wish we had. Children will be exposed to realistic situations that can cause jealousy and learn to identify when they might feel jealous, how that affects their behavior, and how to deal with that feeling. Self-awareness and perception are emphasized in conjunction with social and emotional learning standards.
