What is When I'm Feeling Jealous about?

Jealousy can appear when someone else has something you want, receives praise, or seems to be having more fun. In this gentle picture book, children explore what jealousy feels like and how it can affect their thoughts and behaviour. Through a relatable story and simple examples, readers learn that these feelings are normal, but they do not have to take control. The book encourages children to recognise jealousy, talk about it, and remember that everyone—including themselves—is special.
