Lodelump and the Heavy Day: 2nd edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781066651603)

In the magical woodland of Wimblewick, Thistlewhim the gnome sets off on a sunny walk-only to find his friend Lodelump having a heavy, teary day.

Perfect for bedtime, classrooms, or quiet moments together, Lodelump and the Heavy Day helps children (and grown-ups) understand big feelings in a safe, supportive way.

Includes a creative activity guide to make your own sunlight jar-a comforting way to focus on joy, hope, and gratitude.
