Series: Let's Talk

From the bestselling author of How Are You Feeling Today?, this thoughtful picture book teaches children how to find new ways of expressing themselves.

'Why am I losing my temper?'. 'Why am I acting grumpy?'. This important book prompts children to question certain behaviours and why they happen. Addressing common situations sympathetically and humorously, What Makes You Do That? answers key behavioural concerns and encourages children to self-reflect, consider how their actions affect others and manage their emotions. This book is ideal for sharing with young children, or to give to older children to read independently.

Written in child-friendly language, this great dip-in book explores 12 typical behaviours that children engage in, such as temper tantrums, telling lies or cheating, and offers 12 constructive behaviours to consider instead, like how to stay calm, be honest or play fairly. There are fun, colourful illustrations by Sarah Jennings throughout and helpful notes for parents and carers at the back of the book, with tips for supporting positive behaviour early on.

Let’s Talk books help you start meaningful conversations with your child. Written by an expert and covering topics like feelings, relationships, diversity and mental health, these comforting picture books support healthy discussion right from the start.
