by D.K. Publishing

Little one, what scares you?

Follow the story of the scared little ghost who tries to understand its fears and find ways to make them go away. The vibrant picture book teaches children what fear is, how it feels, and how to manage this unpleasant emotion.

First Emotions: I Feel Scared is an interactive board book for 3-5-year-olds that guides young children to understanding big emotions through storytelling. Inside you'll find:

- Clear questions directed at young readers that create an interactive learning experience
- Illustrations and bright colours that engage young children
- A simple and easy-to-understand approach to explaining emotions

Feeling scared isn't nice at all. But, it has a specific function - it keeps us safe. With the help of this colourful storybook, children will learn that we all feel afraid sometimes. The book also shows youngsters that even when they are safe, they might still feel scared and how they can be brave instead.

The story and illustrations are especially helpful to children who are often scared, anxious, apprehensive or overwhelmed. The book helps children learn emotional intelligence and encourages them to face new situations at an early age.

DK has published a range of emotions books for toddlers and young children that help parents, carers, and preschool teachers support social and emotional skills. Other books in the series include I Feel Sad, I Feel Proud, I Feel Angry, How Am I Feeling?

My kids enjoyed this book, especially by daughter. She is going through a phase where she is scared of everything, and this book kind of helped her to see that it’s okay to be scared of things, and that everyone is scared of different things.

This is a great book for kids that get scared easily or are scared of things. It might help them to not feel so alone.

I preferred "I Feel Happy," but "I Feel Scared" does a similarly good job of describing the physical and mental experience of feeling scared. I didn't like the examples so much. The tooth in the pliers actually is scary, and I'm not sure whether looking at a spider for one minute is the CBT that we need. This could really go either way: be helpful and comforting to someone managing fears or generate new fears for someone who doesn't have a bunch.
