About the Books
Tom Percival's Big Bright Feelings series tackles the everyday emotional hurdles of early childhood with warmth, humor, and genuine insight. In Perfectly Norman, a boy who sprouts wings must decide whether to hide his difference or embrace it, opening a conversation about self-acceptance and belonging. Ruby's Worry follows a small worry that grows bigger the longer it stays unspoken, showing children how sharing feelings can lighten their weight. Ravi's Roar introduces a boy who channels his inner tiger a little too enthusiastically, learning the value of patience and sharing. Meesha Makes Friends explores the anxiety of forming new friendships and the surprising ways creativity can help a shy child connect with others. Tilda Tries Again follows a girl whose carefully ordered world is upended by an unexpected setback, teaching resilience and the courage to try once more. Milo's Monster gives jealousy a physical form, following Milo as he learns to recognize, name, and ultimately release a feeling that's been coming between him and his best friend. Together, these six stories build a toolkit of emotional vocabulary that children can carry into real life. Illustrated throughout in Percival's signature bright, expressive style, the books balance honest content with humor and hope, ensuring difficult topics never feel heavy. Parents, caregivers, and teachers often turn to this series as a springboard for conversations about wellbeing, self-image, and building confidence, making it a trusted addition to home bookshelves and classroom libraries alike.
