About the Book

Jack is having a sleepover at his house. But the boys hear noises and they get very scared! Jack's big sister Ellie says she gets scared sometimes as well. Perhaps Dad can make them all feel better This series introduces young children to different aspects of our emotions and behaviour. A fictional story is backed up by suggestions for activities and ideas to talk about, while a wordless storyboard encourages children to tell another story.

About the Author :
Sue is a teacher and published author. She writes fiction and non fiction for both education and trade markets for children from pre school to early Key Stage 3. Sue is married with four children, one gorgeous grandchild and a really naughty cat! She plays golf and badminton and loves walking in the countryside around her home.

Review :
"The books would be helpful for teaching children [the concepts of rules, sharing, fears, and sadness] as well as beginning a dialogue with children about them. Teachers and school counselors will want to consider adding these to their library as they will undoubtedly be a good resource in classrooms."--Chris Singer, BookDads.com "Titles in the series capture the big emotions that all kids feel. The stories are perfect for young readers."--Imagination Soup "Who Feels Scared?"BOOKLIST, 10/1/2011Everyone is scared of something, and what scares one person might be enjoyed by another. That's the message delivered by this gentle yet spirited entry in the Our Emotions and Behavior series. Buddies Kevin and Ravi are spending the night at their friend Jack's house, and, as with all sleepovers, startling things seem to wait behind each corner. But that lion's roar is really just the dog barking, and that thump in the closet just a toy. In a nice twist, Jack's sister drops by to illustrate that older people get scared, too--she was afraid of flying until she tried listening to music on the plane. Guicciardini's cartoon illustrations give the lesson learning a zany edge, especially when the kids are imagining nonexistent monsters. Graves ends her book with a wordless two-page story of Tom's first night away from home, inviting parents and teachers to have kids tell Tom's story based on what they learned from Kevin and Ravi. Not a bad book to have o "Exuberant color illustrations bring to life simple stories about ordinary children interacting with their friends at school or at play. . . .The Our Emotions and Behavior series is enthusiastically recommended for parents as well as school and library children's collections."--"Midwest Book Review" "Engaging cartoons and the message about finding workarounds should prove practical."--"Publishers Weekly" "These are excellent titles for children who need help expressing their feelings and they will be a bonus in any guidance counselor's arsenal." -- "School Library Journal" Graves and Guicciardini address fear in this offering, part of the new Our Emotions and Behavior series. When Kevin, Ravi, and Jack have a sleepover, they hear noises in the closet and imagine that it's a monster, but Jack's sister, Ellie, shows them that it's just a toy robot. Ellie is afraid of flying, but listening to music on a plane relieves her fear; other fears and potential solutions are presented as well. Though the topic is covered in a general way, Guicciardini's engaging cartoons and the message about finding workarounds should prove practical. Available simultaneously: "I'm Not Happy", " Not Fair", " Won't Share", and "But Why Can't I? "Ages 4-8. (Aug.) -- "Publisher's Weekly" PreS-Gr 1-These books facilitate discussions between adults and children about behaviors in everyday situations like playing at school ("Not Fair"), listening to a babysitter ("Why Can't I?"), spending the night away from home ("Scared?"), and looking for a lost dog ("Not Happy"). Short sentences and simple plotlines create excellent lead-ins to talking about making good decisions when faced with new and difficult emotions. "Jenny said there were rules for crossing roads. They had to stop, look, and listen." The color cartoon illustrations help make the concepts easy to grasp. In addition to the main story, a wordless, four-frame graphic at the end reemphasizes the emotion being explored. Discussion questions are included in the back matter. These are excellent titles for children who need help expressing their feelings and they will be a bonus in any guidance counselor's arsenal.-Rachel Artley, Watertown Elementary School, TN -- "School Library Journal"
