'An accessible entry into discussions on the complexity of feelings, this picture book will be returned to time and time again.' - Foreword Starred Review

All kinds of guests check in and out of the Grand Hotel of Feelings. Some are fun and some are tricky, but all are welcome!

Welcome to the Grand Hotel of Feelings, where all kinds of feelings come and stay. Every guest has unique needs. Anger is very loud and needs plenty of space to scream and shout. Sadness speaks in a small voice and occasionally floods the bathroom. Anxiety takes many shapes and loves the spotlight.

Some feelings are big and some are small, some are fun and some are tricky, but all feelings must be listened to and acknowledged. After all, they're just passing through.

This beautiful and imaginative title is much loved by readers young and old and has been translated into 22 languages. This is a new paperback edition.

Reviews for The Grand Hotel of Feelings

'What I particularly like is that it not only names a wide range of emotions, but it also promotes that idea that all emotions are normal and welcome; that uncomfortable feelings don’t need to be pushed to the backs of our minds, and sometimes we might just need to sit with them a while. The Grand Hotel of Feelings would lend itself brilliantly to a wide range of curriculum-based activities, including PSHE, literacy, DT, art, and even music.' - Jo Cummins, Teach Primary Magazine 'And this is the absolute beauty of this book: the clear message is that all feelings are valid and that all need to be allowed to be felt. Such an important teaching for children (and adults actually!) that it’s okay to feel things that may be uncomfortable or that we may have been led to believe are ‘bad’ or ‘shameful’. Perfect for small-group or 1-1 discussion, especially for children experiencing emotional dysregulation and struggling to understand or articulate how they are feeling.' - The Literacy Tree
