About this listen

The Big Hug Collection comprises of ten enlightening tales that offer gentle explanations of emotions and relationships through analogies children can relate to.

These include: 'A Family Is Like a Cake', 'Anger Is Like Armour', 'Friendship Is Like a Seesaw', 'Life Is Like the Wind', 'Love Is Like a Tree', 'The Internet Is Like a Puddle', 'The Playground Is Like the Jungle', 'Worries Are Like Clouds', 'You Are Like You' and 'Your Mind Is Like a Garden'.

Each story in the collection has grown from psychological sessions with children (and sometimes with grown ups) to help them understand and talk about complex emotional situations in simple, approachable ways. The Big Hug Collection acknowledges that some moments in life are tricky and encourages acceptance, problem solving and help-seeking as needed.

Critic reviews

"The Big Hug Book series are a thoughtful and crucial addition to any classroom or home, explaining complex emotions in a tone and language perfect for young children." (Better Reading)

"The Big Hug Books series is one that I feel should be on shelves in every home, school and library; actually they should be off the shelves, being read time and time again, so important are the messages in these books." (Children's Books Daily)
