Sea friends are playing tag. Dolphin accidentally swims into two of his friends. OUCH! Suddenly a variety of emotions are swimming alongside the friends. A wise octopus floats over and begins sharing the names of their emotions and a simple way to help calm down and understand each friend’s feelings a little better. Before they know it, the friends are again having fun and experiencing fun emotions, too!
I loved the simplicity of this book. Accidents happen, and emotions happen. It's ok to feel those emotions, but finding ways to turn them around is a lifelong habit to form in early years of life. Whether the feelings are big or small, all emotions need to be explored and understood.
