Ssouthernlifestyle ~ Big Heart Feels is a great addition to the series. When I asked my granddaughter what did she learn from the book, her reply was “to think about how other people feel”. That is how I know this book is great for teaching kids about having empathy for others in a simple and positive way. By using different situations within the story, it allows kids to see how empathy can be expressed when someone else is feeling down. This is definitely a great children’s book to have in your child’s collection.
