The Day the Feelings Got Big
A cozy, magical journey through worry, wonder, and finding your way back to calm.
Some days, big feelings appear out of nowhere.
They flutter in your tummy, make your heart race, and turn your world upside down.
That’s what happens to Maya—until her wise little cat, Pompom, gently guides her through calming techniques that help her feel grounded, safe, and okay again.
The Day the Feelings Got Big is a heartfelt picture book that helps children understand and regulate anxiety through breathwork, grounding tools, and emotional validation.

Explains big emotions in language kids can understand
Offers gentle, practical tools like grounding and breathing exercises
Models empathy, connection, and emotional resilience
Features cozy, whimsical illustrations and a lovable animal companion
And finally mindful activity pages
A comforting read for parents, teachers, and therapists — and a reminder for little hearts that it’s okay to feel.
