The Feelings Toolbox

This SEL beginning reader series brings real-life emotions to life through relatable characters and meaningful stories that children can see themselves in.

Each book follows a different child navigating big feelings—like anger, worry, sadness, or frustration—and the challenges that come with them. With the support of a caring school counselor, these characters learn simple, practical strategies to understand their emotions, make positive choices, and build confidence along the way.

Created by a school counselor, this series is designed to support social-emotional learning in classrooms, counseling settings, and at home. Each story includes opportunities for reflection and growth, helping children recognize that their feelings are valid—and that they have the power to manage them.

Because every child has big feelings…and every child can learn how to navigate them.
