WRITTEN BY JANE EVANS
How Are You Feeling Today Baby Bear?
A gentle story to help children aged 2 to 6
years who have lived with violence in their home
Baby Bear lives in a home with the Big
Bears, and loves to chase butterflies and make mud pies - they make Baby Bear's
tummy fill with sunshine. Then, one night, Baby Bear hears a big storm
downstairs in the house and in the morning, Baby Bear's tummy starts to feel
grey and rainy. How will such a small bear cope with these big new feelings?
This sensitive, charming storybook is
written to help children who have lived with violence at home to begin to
explore and name their feelings. Accompanied by notes for adults on how to use
each page of the story to start conversations, it also features fun games and
activities to help to understand and express difficult emotions. It will be a
useful book for social workers, counsellors, domestic violence workers and all
grown-ups working with children.
