This title helps you follow the four loveable friends through their day, and explore the emotions that naturally occur in every young child's life. In the park, at playgroup, eating meals, going to the shops...a feeling accompanies each event, be it happy or sad, brave or small or, quite simply, feeling loved. It offers a brilliant way to soothe a bad mood and to explain that everyone feels strong emotions sometimes. The simple, bouncy, rhyming text makes it a joy to read and re-read.
