The series offers a very clever way of getting children to discuss emotions and personality types and how we need all types in the world. In each story the character is given a challenge – Little Miss Sunshine comes across Miseryland – she is reprimanded for breaking all the rules and when she asks why people aren’t allowed to smile and laugh she’s told because that’s the rule!

When I’m Feeling… Series

I’ve been looking for a good series that explores emotions and feelings for younger children and this is perfect. When children read about how emotions make us behave – feeling loved makes us kind, or feeing sad can make us angry – they have a safe space to explore how their emotions make them act.
