ㆍThe sequel to the best-selling series for infants and toddlers: "The First Emotional Coaching Picture Book for Ages 3-7."

Toddlerhood is a period in which children's emotions develop to the point where they can express their current feelings and situations in richer language than before.
It is also a time when children begin to socialize with peers and become interested in the feelings of others.
Experts agree that the experience of understanding and expressing one's own feelings and the experience of understanding the feelings of others are fundamental to the emotional and social development of young children.
For the "post-corona kids," who have been deprived of these experiences in recent years when wearing masks has become routine, proper emotional coaching will be even more important.


For years, most people have been living with masks.
I hope this will be an opportunity for children who grew up in an environment where they had little opportunity to read facial expressions to practice expressing their feelings.

"Tell Me, Tell Me How You Feel" is an emotional coaching picture book that follows the sex education picture book "Precious, Precious, Me and You Too", which became a bestseller for infants and toddlers immediately after its publication, and "Precious, Precious, Your Heart Too", which deals with resilience in early childhood.
Picture books are an excellent tool for children and caregivers to take the first steps in emotional coaching together.
Because we can exchange rich stimuli and experiences with each other through all our senses.
I confidently recommend this book to families with young children, daycare centers, kindergartens, and other educational settings.
I hope you enjoy reading to your children and have open discussions about their emotions.

ㆍ“No matter what you feel, your feelings are precious.
It's important to say those feelings out loud."
_An emotional picture book that helps children understand their feelings accurately and develop the ability to express them healthily.

A child is crying and screaming, “No, no!”
When the puppy approaches and asks why the child is crying, the child only says that he is crying because he hates it so much.
It's as if it's a direct translation of real-life children who stamp their feet, cry, and roll around when things don't go their way.
Yayoi Watanabe, a developmental psychologist and professor of psychology at Hosei University in Japan, says that the reason children express their feelings with their whole body like this is because they don't know exactly what they're feeling and don't know how to communicate it.


This book tells us how we feel through the mouth of a dog, and tells us that we must use our voices to express our feelings to others so that they can understand our feelings.
It explains step-by-step, using simple expressions and examples that are right at the children's level, when they feel bad, what to say when that happens, and how expressing how they feel can change the situation.


Say out loud what's on your mind.
You'll feel refreshed.

No matter how you feel, your feelings are precious.
It's important to express those feelings out loud.
Then I will understand your heart better.
_From the text

The power to accurately understand your feelings and express them healthily.
"Tell Me, Tell Me How You Feel" is an emotional picture book that encourages and helps children develop that strength.

ㆍWhen adults read first, read to children, and use together
From the time of 'reading books' to the time of 'reading minds'

Before reading this book to your children, let's first read the expert's solid coaching and words of encouragement at the end of the text, which will touch even the hearts of adults.
We must understand our children's feelings, speak for them, practice introspecting and expressing our own emotions, and use words to ignite our children's emotional switches! These specific methods are even more effective when adults first read and practice them.


After reading the book to your child, turn to the last page, which contains various expressions and facial expressions to express feelings.
You can enjoy playing with your child and seeing what facial expressions appear when they feel different, or you can have your child practice in front of a mirror on their own.
Let's have fun playing a quiz game with your child, such as pointing out each expression in the picture and asking, "What is this child feeling right now?"
The time spent ‘reading books’ will become a pleasant and enjoyable time of ‘reading the mind.’

ㆍThe appearance of a friendly and lovable puppy character that represents the child's heart.
_The first picture book by Wakaru, a popular author with 250,000 Twitter followers.

This is the first picture book by author Wakaru, who has gained great popularity for her simple lines and colors, and cute characters with bright smiles, and is active in various fields such as books, advertisements, and web pages. Every scene stands out with its liveliness.
A particularly adorable puppy with fluffy white fur, a pink heart drawn on its chest, and a bright smile all the time.
The friendly puppy character is so appealing that it captures the hearts of not only children but also their parents.


As striking as its appearance is the dog's role.
Sometimes, like a friend, you understand the feelings of a crying child who says, "No, no!" Sometimes, like a mother or father, you speak on behalf of the child's feelings, and sometimes, like a problem solver, you help the child solve the problem that is upsetting them.
While reading this book with the puppy character, children will also be willing to open their hearts and happily immerse themselves in the book.
