The Sad Skeleton is struggling to make friends. He is kind and gentle but his bony appearance tends to scare others away. He finds it difficult to cope with the way others react to him and retreats into himself with sadness. It takes his one confidant, Dave the Bat to listen carefully to Skeleton’s woes and by sharing his feelings openly, Skeleton is left with a better understanding of why others behave towards him as they do and how he can change that. By talking and sharing, he learns ‘big’ feelings can go away. This is a book for younger readers, their teachers and parents, written in easy to understand rhyme with striking fullcolur illustrations, set in the magical world of ‘Lifeland,’ and one of a series of six Finding Your Way books. Each book takes one of the six core emotions of sadness, fear, anger, happiness, surprise and disgust and aims to show the reader how to identify and manage the emotion they are feeling safely on their own or with the help of an adult.
