Много хубава книжка. И мама много я харесва.

[Fatima Seraj Alam · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book explores what it means to be scared and the physical reactions and what can little kids do when they are feeling scared. I got to know that my little one is scared of insects but she doesn’t know why based on the questions at the end of the book.

I especially like the note at the end for parents. I wish my parents had done me the courtesy of reading it and understanding the importance of self-esteem in children. Who knows that kind of person I might have been if someone had taught me to be less scared.

I picked this book up because my son has been having bad dreams lately and I thought it would help him get through it. Luckily I read it before I shared it with him because the illustrations are very dark and frightening! If he didn't have bad dreams before reading this book, I was sure he would after! One page shows little scared bunny in bed and a shadow of a large frightening looking man/monster watching him sleep with glowing eyes.... terrifying! When it showed what it actually was with the lights on (a few pages later and perhaps much too late) the real shape was scary in the light too!

I just bought this book and 3 others like it. I really like how they explain to my son about what it means to be scared, sad, angry, and happy. Then it talks about how to deal with these feelings and that it's okay to feel this way sometimes. It does so without being to complicated.

This book is about what it feels like to be scared and how to deal with it. The book gave very good descriptive details on symptoms of fear like when your heart races, your body trembles and your hair stands up on your body. It also spoke about wanting to run and hide when feeling afraid. The book also gave examples of things that may seem scary like spiders, bullies and being alone in the dark. It also touched on how scary will look different for everyone and each person may have different fears. I like how the book encourages the reader to talk about feeling scared so they can work those feelings out and remove the fear. I thought it was cool to end this book about fear in a playful manner by having the main character dress up in a scary costume. Overall this was a good book on addressing feeling scared and I would recommend it to parents to help their children handle fear.

Another excellent conversation starter for young children to discuss their fears: what it feels like to be afraid, what makes us afraid, and oh joy--the fact that everyone is afraid sometimes, it's normal and it's OK to admit it. Some people are afraid of things that other people find funny, or just don't bother them--but those same "brave" folks have their own fears even if they hide them. Fear is a positive thing, as it stops us doing stupid things that could get us or others hurt, too. The text suggests that talking to someone can help us work through our feelings. The only thing missing is the concept of respecting other people's fears and not being obnoxious or making fun of them for being scared.

[Divine · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book starts right out describing what it feels like to be scared. It then goes into some things that make you feel scared. The book also states that it's okay to feel scared. I would recommend this book to ages 3-5. I think the book does a good job at relating to how children might feel when they're sad. The book also says that people have different things that scare them. I like that the book mentions that you can talk to someone for help understanding your scared feeling. Therefore, I would say this is a good book for both parents and teachers to have available for children.

Sé que esta serie de libros acerca de los sentimientos son dirigidos para los niños y especialmente a los padres. Eso me parece muy bueno. Las notas al final son consejos muy buenos para poner en práctica.

Esta historia es la que menos me ha gustado y es básicamente porque siento que le falta mucho más. La manera de abordar el miedo no me gustó mucho.

[Jessica · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cute. Words don’t flow like I prefer in a kids book, but I do appreciate the inclusion that some things scare one person, but not another, and sometimes the things we are afraid of can be revealed as not so scary after all. I just think the words used to say it could have been a bit more sing songy or captivating to kiddos.

[Josefina Bustos · Rating 4 out of 5]

Everyone can relate to fear to some degree. Children are no different in feeling fear. They may not know how to express it, but this book gives them the opportunity to understand that it is okay to be scared. The illustrations give the story life and the story is relatable.

Good description of scared feeling but doesn't tell how to handle it

[Cathy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ditto, as my responses before in this series.

[Melissa Shea · Rating 3 out of 5]

Picture- The bunny in this book tells us what he is scared of and what he does to help him when he is scared.

[Lina · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good book to control emotions

[TJ & AJ · Rating 3 out of 5]

These books are great conversation starters for helping little kids deal with their big feelings. Not one of TJ's favorites though.

[Maria Popescu]

Read in Italian. Great series for teaching children about their emotions!

[Lex Redding · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great series and a great book to talk about the different things people are sometimes scared about and how we can help each other.

[SaraKat · Rating 3 out of 5]

A very sweet picture book for young 'uns to explain fear. It has a nice adult section at the end to help parents help kids through scary times. The pictures are sweet and very cute.

Luka says he likes it.

[Hypatia's Dream · Rating 4 out of 5]

Otra de las aventuras de este pequeño y tierno conejito de Trace Moroney que siempre aborda temas emocionales para que los peques enfrenten los típicos miedos de la infancia. Muy buen tema.

[Lila Danisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another simple yet educational book to teach the kids about what scared is.

[Lee · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book's message is that it's okay to feel scared. This message just didn't strike me as exciting or inspiring, but may be useful for children who have a great deal of fear.

[Yark Arochi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Bonita forma de mostrar que el miedo es normal y que no a todos les tienen miedo a lo mismo

[Erika HerO · Rating 4 out of 5]

"Sentir miedo no es malo y puede ayudarte a evitar peligros".
"A cada persona le dan miedo diferentes cosas: las cosas que me dan miedo a mí quizás a ti no te asusten"

cute

[Karin · Rating 4 out of 5]

An engaging book that explores feelings and associated responses. Good conversation starter.

[Peacegal · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was certainly an emotion I knew well as a child...and know well today. These days, I'm afraid of things on a much wider scale (and less manageable) than as a kid, but we all need a bit of comforting now and then.

[Suz · Rating 3 out of 5]

This series is great. Indy is 4 and asks for them (when it's a good day!) and today he asked for the 'sharing one'. I couldn't find it but I found this one. I like the very simple themes and vocabulary for Indy as he's not a 'sitter' when reading.

It's okay to feel scared. It can help us get away from danger and make us yell out for H E L P!!!

A shame in this instance today though, that he ended up doing roley poleys on my bed instead of listening to the story. Grrr!

[Julia · Rating 3 out of 5]

Children I've used it with during sessions have responded well. Many particularly like the texture and the suggestions. I refer back to it to prompt ex/ "remember what the bunny tried when he was feeling scared?"
