'Such a raw, honest and important book' Giovanna FletcherLike any new mum, Laura Dockrill felt rather overwhelmed after the birth of her son. But a slow recovery, sleep deprivation and anxiety quickly escalated into postpartum psychosis, and she had to spend a fortnight in a psych ward, separated from her family.

There are times when I don’t feel like myself. In these wobbly moments, my belly feels sick, my heart thumps, and sometimes I even want to cry. And that's because I'm worried. I call my worries … BIG THOUGHTS.Everyone has worries: BIG THOUGHTS. These Big Thoughts can be invisible, but loud – nobody else can hear the racket they make inside your head. Big Thoughts can be about the future – things that haven't and won't ever even happen – or about the past. Big Thoughts can even be make-believe. That's the annoying thing about Big Thoughts … they don't always tell the truth.In her distinctively fizzy voice, Laura Dockrill connects with her readers – making them feel completely seen and heard – and offers children very real coping strategies to calm their worried minds; strategies they can carry with them throughout their lives. Richly detailed and emotive illustrations from Ashling Lindsay make this a vital read to reassure the anxious minds of children of all ages."This is a sensitive, beautifully illustrated book that helps children to re-frame their worries, and helps them to cope when their thoughts can start to feel overwhelming. I’d recommend it for all parents." - Prof Sam Wass, Child Psychologist and Neuroscientist

Famed spoken-word poet Laura Dockrill's hilarious read-aloud about an outraged baked good Oooohhh . . . not you again AGGGHH It's so bright . . . Close this book this very second, you nosy noodle Cookie has woken up on the wrong side of the bed and is very angry. You want to know why? Well, you'd have to keep reading to find out, but now Cookie's calling you annoying and telling you to mind your own business. If by chance you do stick around, you might hear about a certain roommate's terrible musical skills, why you should never let your barber try out a "new look," how it's impossible to find a hat that fits a cookie, and why an ice-cream parlor that's out of your favorite treat can be a source of desolation. Then there's the matter of a hungry bird who tries to snack on you. . . . Propelled by quirky humor and woes that every young child can relate to, Angry Cookie suggests that sometimes the best way to cheer up a grumpy lump is simply by being there -- and lending your ears.

Poetic words, evocative art, and die-cuts throughout combine to explore a child's moods through color--or the lack of color--and offer a reassuring message of love and acceptance. Today I feel gray. But that's OK. Some days you may feel sunshine yellow or orange-balloon bright. Other days you're gray, or even night-sky black--like a dark scribble on a page, a storm in the clouds, or a puddle in the road. Gray is when you don't feel like yourself, or like you don't belong. But however you feel, there are big hugs (red) and loving lullabies (blue) waiting, and even the grayest sidewalk is a canvas for you to fill with the colors you choose. A tender narration from British spoken-word poet Laura Dockrill and subtle, spare artwork from former UK Children's Laureate Lauren Child offer a comforting read for young children that addresses feelings of sadness and assures them that they are never alone.

A poetic story from Laura Dockrill (Angry Cookie, The Lipstick, Grey) that shows children that there are many different ways to be strong. Is strong brave and fearless? Does it always win a fight? Does strong have a shouty voice? Is it always right? These are some of the questions that the inquisitive Bean asks their Nanna one day while in the garden. What follows is a stunning, lyrical exploration of strength and its many guises. From the power of silence to the strength of an embrace, this uplifting picture book offers an alternative to the stereotypes around strength, and encourages all children that they can be strong in their own way. The lyrical text is accompanied by Kip Alizadeh's gorgeous, evocative illustrations, which are a celebration of the natural world. Just like Today I'm Strong by Nadiya Hussain and Ella Bailey, The Lion Inside by Rachel Bright and Jim Field, and the Big Bright Feelings series by Tom Percival, I Am Strong Just Being Me is a powerful picture book that inspires reflection.
