Following on from What Are You Feeling?, The School of Life delivers another beautifully illustrated book providing further opportunity to start conversations with children about feelings.
As well as how to recognise and respond to your feelings, it’s important to think about what our friends and family might be feeling. This book is a wonderful way to open up discussions about building empathy, the difference between empathy and sympathy, how we better understand the people around us and how to be a great friend.
Accompanied by Detective Feelings (brilliantly brought to life by illustrator Daniel Gray-Barnett) the reader embarks upon a journey of feelings, picking up clues along the way through reading expressions and body language.
Feelings can be tricky to navigate for us all, and this is a great accompaniment to help map the way with questions, suggestions to help you, with a diverse cast of characters to accompany the reader too.
An excellent book to develop emotional literacy alongside What Are You Feeling? and provide children with the language they need to identify and navigate their emotions and identify the emotions of others.

What Are They Feeling? Synopsis
It’s important to think about what others might be feeling, so we can understand the people around us better and be a good friend. But sometimes it can be difficult to guess what someone else might be feeling, or their emotions may not be what we expect. What Are They Feeling? takes children on an exploration of the feelings of others.
We follow Detective Feelings as they look for clues about how someone is feeling through their expression, body language and the situation. Are they smiling or frowning? What is happening around them? Has someone else been telling a joke or saying something a bit mean?
We discover why empathy and sympathy are important, and how you can feel empathy for someone when you may not share the same experiences or problems as them, such as having to move to another country, or starting a new school. Vibrant and amusing illustrations by award-winning illustrator Daniel Gray-Barnett bring the adventures of Detective Feelings to life.
