Dino Feelings is Rachel Bright and Chris Chatterton's picture-book franchise about small dinosaurs dealing with very recognisable big feelings. The books sit close to Bright's wider emotional-literacy work: warm rhyming storytelling, bright character design, gentle humour and a clear parent-friendly theme in each title. The dinosaur hook gives the series extra child appeal, while the stories cover worry, affection, anger, wobbliness, chatty behaviour, hiding away and messiness in a reassuring way. It is a useful read-aloud series for nursery, Reception and early primary children who need feelings made visible without the book feeling too clinical.
A warm rhyming picture-book series about little dinosaurs and big feelings, ideal for talking through worry, anger, confidence, affection and social behaviour.
