Big Emotions
“Big feelings are easier with a friend.”
Bear has feelings that feel far too big for one bear. Luckily, Bee is right there. A sweet watercolour story about naming what you feel, sitting with it, and discovering that the very best friends help you carry the heavy ones.

Big feelings, little readers
A feeling with a name is easier to hold.
Bear feels everything at full volume. Bee helps him find the word for it — and that's the whole trick. Read it together, then stop on a page and ask which one showed up today.
Happy
Fizzy. Bouncy. Hard to sit still.
Sad
Heavy and quiet. Wants a hug.
Angry
Hot and loud. Needs a big breath.
Scared
Small and shaky. Wants a hand to hold.
Excited
Like a shaken-up bottle of soda.
Calm
Slow and soft. Everything fits again.
No feeling is too big when somebody sits with you while you have it.
More from the shelf
Two more to read next.
Same family, same idea, very different worlds.
