Description

A Picture Book About How to Cope and Calm Down When Faced with Big Feelings and Emotions

What if we could create a formula to help us remember what to do in challenging situations?

Felix takes two things with him wherever he goes: his stuffed rat, Hank, and his notebook of Feelings Formulas.

Hank provides Felix with a friend who's always there. And the Feelings Formulas notebook helps Felix figure out how to cope with challenges and concerns he experiences on his adventures.

Felix has opportunities everyday to use his formulas, like when he trips on a tree branch on the way to school (formula: Calm Down Cure); realizes he'll be doing rope climbs in gym class (formula: Courage Creator); and notices kids laughing at him (formula: Self-Esteem Solution).

The Feelings Formulas help Felix solve problems when he's confused, and calm down when he has big feelings - and he knows they can help you, too!
