Review
“Being aware of our feelings is a building block for our emotional and social intelligence. In this charming and creative book, Christina Furnival offers children a way to sense and shape their emotions that emerge in the important friendships that shape who we are now, and who we will become later on in our lives.”
―Daniel J. Siegel, MD, New York Times bestselling author of The Developing Mind, Parenting from the Inside Out, and The Whole Brain Child
“Managing bullies is almost a guarantee with school-aged children, and this book helps children identify the right steps to seeking help and setting limits! Staying true to yourself, setting limits, and seeking help is often not taught by parents or educators, and this book will help guide children in managing complex problems appropriately. As a therapist in my 30s, some of these points were great reminders for difficult people I have come across!”
―Brie Turns, PhD, LMFT, author of I Will Always Love You
“Christina Furnival and Katie Dwyer are a dynamic team, creating a beautiful children’s book about healthy boundaries and negotiating friendships.

“A beautiful story that encourages young children to set healthy boundaries and use assertiveness skills to improve friendships. A gift to young children everywhere.”
―Katie Hurley, LCSW, author of The Happy Kid Handbook and No More Mean Girls
