We discovered this beautiful story a while back when my son was obsessed with the moon. Every night, he would look out the windows and search for the moon, and just sit there for a few minutes, observing it. The shiny cover got his attention right away. 😉 This story is about a little boy…

“My heart is full of feelings. Big feelings and small feelings. Loud feelings and quiet feelings. Quick feelings and slow feelings. My heart is like a house, with all these feelings living inside.” I just LOVE how the cut-out hearts of the book illustrate this perfectly. Actually, it really helped my son, then 2 years…
