A warm and simple board book that shares how to talk about feelings through a friendship between a child and their dog.

Through the up-close expressive faces of a child and their dog, we learn the words for a range of feelings.

This is my dog. She is silly! She is happy. Sometimes she is sad. She’s my best friend.

This simple board book is a starting point to talk about how we feel. Key words describe the many emotions a dog can go through in a short time, while the expressions on the faces of the people nearby convey a whole new raft of feelings as they respond and react. And so the story becomes one of friendship and how our friends make us feel.

This new board book is a multi-layered delight joining Pops in Gavin Bishop’s powerful series to share with the smallest children. There is also version available in te reo Māori here.
