From Chrissy Metz, star of the hit NBC television show This Is Us, and Bradley Collins comes a second heartwarming picture book in the New York Times bestselling series, all about using faith and prayer to explore the ups and downs of feelings!
"The highlight of the book is Fields’ animal characters. Whether happy, nervous, or sad, their expressive faces are easy to read, and their feelings will be familiar to young tots. The beaver’s frustration is palpable, and the tears in the scared raccoon’s eyes may just make readers’ own eyes well up. Some of the animals have a God stand-in to help them with their feelings—a friend or family member—but the final spread shows all the individual animals coming together in a couple of group hugs that express where children can find support (and sweetly defy predator–prey relationships)." - Kirkus Review
