Little Elephant loves participating in a variety of indoor and outdoor activities,
but unfortunately things change when he hears bad news. He starts to worry. Elephant
then becomes overwhelmed by his thoughts and stops doing the things he loves. When
bad news comes from multiple sources, Elephant worries so much that he can no
longer sleep. Fortunately, Elephant has a caring family and great friends who share
some strategies to help manage his worry.
The Worried Elephant (Feelings: Book 3) is a picture book
suitable for children aged 3 years and older and is particularly relevant in
the current climate. The gorgeous illustrations are produced using a soft
colour palette, helping to create a sense of calm. Discussion questions on the
back page prompt interaction between the reader and its young audience and
encourages little ones to talk about their feelings. Other titles in this
series include: The Shy Zebra and The Lonely Penguin.
