Description

SOMETIMES I FEEL THAT WAY TOO follows a young child over the course of a day -- from breakfast with family to activities at school, afternoon play, and more. Along the way, the child encounters everyday objects and creatures that stir different feelings in him: a reluctant autumn leaf holding tightly to a bare tree branch, a lively hamster being silly in her cage, or a lonely orange that no one picks at snack time. In each interaction he finds a mirror for his own emotions, and a reminder that all the subtle, complex, nuanced feelings he has inside of him are normal and simply part of life.

From Hannah Beach, an emotional health and play-based learning consultant, and sought-after public speaker, comes a gentle story, brought to life with charming details and expressive characters. Together with award-winning illustrator Rebecca Bender, Sometimes I Feel That Way Too, affirms for children and adults alike, that we all experience a wide-range of emotions--each day--and that these feelings are healthy and normal and simply ask to be felt.

Hannah gives talks for parents and professionals across the globe, speaking about how we can create the conditions for resilience through relationship and play.
