What do you do when jealousy comes between friends? From the creator of Ruby Finds a Worry, a story for helping kids cope with jealous feelings.
Milo loves spending time with his best friend, Jay. But when a new girl named Suzi moves in next door to Jay, Milo starts to feel left out. The jealous feeling gets stronger and stronger-until suddenly, a GREEN-EYED MONSTER pops up beside him! Soon, the monster is twisting up all of Milo's thoughts and making him sad. It won't leave him alone! Can Milo find a way to free himself from the monster and repair his friendship?
Warm and uplifting, Milo's Monster is an ideal starting point for helping children to build strong friendships and say goodbye to jealous feelings.
The Big Bright Feelings picture book series provides kid-friendly entry points into emotional intelligence topics-from being true to yourself to dealing with worries, managing anger, and making friends. These topics can be difficult to talk about. But these books act as sensitive and reassuring springboards for conversations about mental and emotional health, positive self-image, building self-confidence, and managing feelings.
