‘This book is a much-needed tool for children and those caring for them. By showing that a wide range of emotions each have their own unique value and purposes, this book helps to both normalise and encourage understanding towards the big emotions and feelings that, although sometimes demonised, are experienced by each and every one of us at some point in our lives.’ — DANIELLE WHITBURN, Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand

Rebekah Lipp is an author, entrepreneur and mental health advocate residing in New Zealand. She co-wrote Finding Gratitude (Quarto, 2019). Her personal journey with anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder inspired Wildling Books, alongside a passion to bring awareness to children’s mental health, emotional well-being and anxiety. After experiencing two years of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) following a period of crisis in her early twenties, she felt there was a real gap in what professionals knew and what parents and teachers needed to know regarding emotional regulation. She believes that we can empower children with skills, help children connect with their emotions, and teach them ways to regulate them. With a gentle parenting approach, Rebekah feels that all children have genius within them and if we act out of a place of compassion, kindness and love, we will see our children thrive. Craig Phillips is an award-winning illustrator whose art has appeared in published works, anthologies and exhibitions across the world.
