BOB'S BAD DAY

Don't deny what you are feeling

Bob is sad but he's a balloon and balloons are supposed to be happy all the time. So when he decides to float away at a birthday party, Robyn the yellow balloon floats after him to help him realize he's not alone. Sometimes children feel sad or anxious or afraid, and that's okay, but sometimes they deny those feelings or understand them. This heartfelt, enlightening book is about helping children put names to their feelings. By putting names to their feelings, they gain the power back to make choices about what to do about it. Teaching children to understand what they are feeling--connecting their mind to their heart--will go a long way to helping them understand themselves as they grow into adulthood.
