A lovely book with an important message of self-compassion, which is explained simply but powerfully.Â
One of the best books 📚 around to help build emotional intelligence! It’s a must read!Â
Simple, beautiful book helping foster compassion in children
An easy-to-read children’s book with a beautiful, kind message- speak to yourself as you would to a friend!
Beautiful drawings and story with an important message
Really enjoyed Dr Olivia Ong’s creative storybook with a great message about self-compassion. Easy to understand. Relatable. And a great example that many kids (and adults!) could imagine. Beautiful slow sloth paced pages with peaceful drawings
A practical and sensitive children’s book. Highly recommended!
Dr Olivia Ong and Joseph Lee have developed a simple but important children’s book about teaching self-compassion. Beautifully illustrated, with a thoughtful story, this book introduces children to the concept of self-care, kindness and sensitivity to others.
It is a trail-blasting classic for children’s self-compassion journey
My daughter gave it a 10/10! The message is so important, and I’m amazed I haven’t read about this in other children’s books anywhere else! Dr Ong is a well-known self-compassion coach for adults. It is refreshing to see this concept has been brought to children’s literature/ another platform to educate our young minds about such important life skills to build resilience. Definitely, a trail-blasting classic!
A lovely book with an important message
A lovely book with an important and positive message for children (and parents too). Would recommend.
