This book was originally written in 2016 and is now rebranded for your child's reading pleasure.

 

Happy and Sad also introduces the reader to journaling. I believe that it is so important for young people to write down their thoughts and feelings, whether feeling happy or sad.

 

I hope you like this book, written in love, inspired by my son’s and my experiences in this ever changing, unpredictable world.

Happy and Sad is an enjoyable book that explores the emotions of the character after relocating to a new home and area. It's a great story for a parent to share with a child and explain to them how there are good times and sad times in life. This book will definitely spark conversation with your child about their happy and sad feelings!

I like how the book shows that it’s okay to feel happy and sad at the same time. Sometimes I feel happy when I play with my friends, but I feel sad when I have to go home. It’s nice to know that all feelings are okay, even the sad ones!

When I read the book, I’m reminded of the hardships my mom and I went through. It’s a story that feels deeply personal, but I know it’s one that many others can relate to as well. The struggles Carol and her son faced when they moved into a new place really resonated with me. Adjusting to unfamiliar surroundings, getting to know new people—it’s never easy. And leaving behind the things that once brought comfort and stability is a difficult and emotional process. I think this is something so many of us can understand, no matter where we come from.
