SuitabookThe Emotions Volcano Sid the Super Happy Kid and Laura The Emotions Explorer
Sandra Clifton
- Reading
- Read alongside the child, pausing to name feelings or choices only when they arise. Afterwards, ask which response felt believable; the ending and any strategies should be checked in the book itself.
- Themes
- Emotional understanding: Laura and Sid are presented in an adventure focused on emotions and emotional intelligence. The subject is clearly foregrounded, but it is not known whether the book validates, simplifies, criticises or prescribes particular emotional responses.
- Worth knowing
- Notice whether the story treats difficult feelings as understandable experiences, problems to suppress, or something to explore. Pay attention to whose emotions receive attention and whether responses are varied or prescriptive.
