Big feelings are a normal part of being little.

Toddlers feel deeply - frustration, sadness, excitement, fear - but they don't always have the words to explain what's happening inside them.

Taylor Learns to Feel Better is a gentle, comforting picture book designed to help toddlers understand emotions through simple, everyday situations and calm, reassuring actions.

Following Taylor, a relatable and gender-neutral toddler, children see what happens, how a feeling shows up, and what can help them feel a little calmer - without rushing, fixing, or judging emotions. Why parents and carers love this book

Emotion-safe storytelling Feelings are named and accepted - not pushed away or "fixed."

Toddler-friendly language Short, repetitive sentences that are easy to understand and soothing to hear.

Simple regulation tools Breathing, asking for comfort, resting, and staying close - actions toddlers can copy.

Soft, calming illustrations Pastel colours and clear facial expressions help children recognise emotions without feeling overwhelmed.

Includes 4 gentle activity pages

At the end of the book, toddlers and grown-ups can practise together with:

• Feeling Faces - point to different emotions
• Copy Taylor - breathe, clap, and hug
• How Do You Feel Today? - name your own feeling
• How Big Is the Feeling? - small, medium, or big

These activities help children build emotional awareness in a playful, non-pressure way.
