Meet Bruno the bear
Picture books — some for bedtime, some for the middle of a big day — that help small children name what they're feeling, and find their way through it. Written for the grown-ups who read them out loud, too.
On the shelf now
Each book takes on one feeling and walks all the way through it — worry, courage, and beyond.
A gentle bedtime story about big feelings, calm breaths, and sleepy goodnights.
Bruno has wonderful days. But at night, his thoughts don't know how to sleep — until Grandma Bear shows him a quiet way to say hello to his worries, and let them drift up to the moon.
A gentle bedtime story about being brave away from home.
Tonight is Bruno's very first night away from home, and his tummy feels small. Brave doesn't mean having no fear — it means feeling scared, and staying anyway.

Little Bear, Big Feelings follows one small bear cub through the ordinary-sized feelings that are enormous when you're four. Each book takes on a single emotion and walks all the way through it, with a simple practice woven gently into the story and a short Note for Grown-Ups at the back — so the book keeps working long after the last page.
