I read an interesting article about him last week on BBC news-did you know he was actually scared of children and didn't like to be left alone with them? How strange then that he wrote so many wonderful and true-to-life stories. Friday last week would have been his 108th birthday. I meant to do something to celebrate it but I forgot!! I will have to look out for this book, its so important for children to deal with their feelings no matter what they are. Mental health has such stigma surrounding it, it would be good if our generation of children grew up without that.Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02709533973382041543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954736734810179748.post-2350341369824090402012-03-10T21:28:39.366+00:002012-03-10T21:28:39.366+00:00It really is a great book.

I considered featuring the book "When Sophie gets angry, really really angry" but one small problem with it, for me, is that where I live, the kids can't just wander off on their own in quite the same way that Sophie does. We live slap bang on a main road in a village, on a pretty busy road. I don't want my three year old to get ideas about just running off somewhere to let off steam... <br /><br />Anyone know of another book about cooling off, aimed at youngsters?Motherfunkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809370449833738968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954736734810179748.post-67205973864230314982012-03-10T19:27:39.876+00:002012-03-10T19:27:39.876+00:00How lovely and possibly just what a few members of...How lovely and possibly just what a few members of my crew need.
