Book Description
"Sad Sally is a marvelous children's book with illustrations that lift the story off the page in a refreshing and engaging way. Absolutely first rate! I cannot wait to read this book to my grandchildren! One of the best children's books I've seen in a long, long time." Norm Foster, Canada's top playwright Sad Sally is a bright, colorful, beautifully illustrated book full of rhymes and meaningful messages. Join Sad Sally as she navigates through an emotional day while receiving advice from a very wise frog. Feelings teach us about ourselves, and the world around us, if we take the time to listen. Feelings themselves are neither good nor bad. They just are. It's what we do with them that give them their positive or negative value. Sad Sally helps parents and kids alike deal with and express their feelings in constructive, healthy ways. "A child having repressed pent up feelings of sadness can lead to severe depression and an inability to experience love and life's intimacy. Colleen Aynn's 'Sad Sally' is a beautiful highly relatable tool for any children or any person working with children. A must arrow in your therapeutic quiver!" STEPHEN B. STOKL, M.D., F.R.C.P.(C), Staff Psychiatrist - Southlake Regional Health Centre

Pages : 290
Book Description
Named one of the Best Books of the Summer by Lit Hub, The Millions, Refinery29, and Hey Alma. “Hilarious, wise, wicked, and tender.” —Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney, The New York Times–bestselling author of The Nest Janet works at a rundown dog shelter in the woods. She wears black, loves The Smiths, and can’t wait to get rid of her passive-aggressive boyfriend. Her brain is full of anxiety, like “one of those closets you never want to open because everything will fall out and crush you.” She has a meddlesome family, eccentric coworkers, one old friend who’s left her for Ibiza, and one new friend who’s really just a neighbor she sees in the hallway. Most of all, Janet has her sadness—a comfortable cloak she uses to insulate herself from the oppressions of the wider world. That is, until one fateful summer when word spreads about a new pill that offers even cynics like her a short-term taste of happiness . . . .just long enough to make it through the holidays without wanting to stab someone with a candy cane. When her family stages an intervention, her boyfriend leaves, and the prospect of making it through Christmas alone seems like too much, Janet decides to give them what they want. What follows is life-changing for all concerned—in ways no one quite expects. Hilarious, bitterly wise, and surprisingly warm, Sad Janet is the depression comedy you never knew you needed.

I'm Happy-Sad Today
Author: Lory Britain
Publisher: Free Spirit Publishing
ISBN: 1631983075
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
This friendly picture book helps young children make sense of mixed-up emotions. Happy, and also sad. Excited, but nervous too. Feeling friendly, with a little shyness mixed in. Mixed feelings are natural, but they can be confusing. There are different kinds of happy—the quiet kind and the “noisy, giggly, jump and run” kind. And there are conflicting feelings, like proud and jealous, frustrated and determined. With gentle messaging and charming illustrations, a little girl talks about her many layered feelings, ultimately concluding, “When I have more than one feeling inside me, I don’t have to choose just one. I know that all my feelings are okay at the same time.” A special section for adults presents ideas for helping children explore their emotions, build a vocabulary of feeling words, know what to do if they feel overwhelmed, and more.
