Guess How Marion Feels

About this book

Does your child ever explode with emotion and have no idea why?You're not alone - and neither is your child.Before a child can learn to manage their feelings, they first need to do something much harder: name them. And that's exactly what this book was created for.Guess How Marion Feels follows a little boy through his very first day of school - one of the most emotionally charged experiences a young child can face. Over the course of that one big day, Marion feels ten real, relatable emotions. And here's what makes this book different from every other feelings book on the shelf: Your child doesn't just read it. They solve it.On every page, a magnifying-glass-wielding detective cat named Coco invites children to study Marion's face, his eyes, his posture-and guess how he feels before the answer is revealed. It becomes a game. A conversation. A safe space to say "I feel that way too."Perfect for: * Children heading into their first school experience* Parents who want to open emotional conversations without forcing them* Teachers and school counsellors building social-emotional skills in the classroom* Any child who feels everything but can express nothingBy the last page, your child won't just know Marion's feelings. They'll have the words for their own.Recommended by reviewers for children with autism, ADHD, and social-emotional learning needs - and loved by every child who has ever felt something they couldn't name.
