أشعر بالعالم

The way feelings are described as crawling or winged creatures really clicked with my son—he now tells me his frustration "has spikes" instead of just melting down. It's opened up conversations we never managed to have before, and the pacing is gentle enough for bedtime even when he's overtired.

My daughter keeps asking to read the "spikey feelings" page again and again—it's such a clever way to help her name what she's feeling. The winged and floating metaphors make the whole concept gentle and approachable for a four-year-old.

The way this book describes feelings as "crawly" and "spikey" things really clicked with my daughter—she kept pointing at the illustrations and naming her own emotions. We've read it every night since it arrived, and it's opened up so many honest conversations.
