The Rabbit Listened Paperback – 4 Jun. 2020

I adore this book, so simply and perfectly written. I want to buy it for everyone now! We all need people to just be our rabbit sometimes 💕

Such an awesome book. I’ve used this book in an educational setting on several occasions now. It’s truly beautiful and the graphics are delightful. It is excellent at addressing the topic of emotions and that sometimes it’s okay to just ‘be’. It discusses various emotions and reactions and is wonderfully well paced. I have bought numerous copies over the last couple of years as it’s a great book to give to someone who may be struggling with their emotions or feelings. Although set for a child it resonates with adults as well….and yes, I’ve got my own copy!!

This is a lovely book with lots of scope for discussion of emotions and how to understand sad and/or angry emotions. The text and illustrations are very good. I shared it with a seven-year-old who is having some difficulties with controlling emotions and asked for her view about the book and what age they felt it was suitabile for. She decided it was too upsetting for 6 year olds or younger, because it would make them feel very sad when the birds knocked down the beautiful building - it made her sad but she said she could deal with it because she was seven but could not have dealt with it when she was even a bit younger. She liked the rest of it but it did unsettle her a bit as she identified closely with the emotions that are still, for her (in different circumstances) still hard to manage. A useful book to have on hand for a range of children who are at that 5-8 stage of development.

Our favourite book! Lovely, warm and kind story about children's emotions. We have this title in our language and it was a time to buy and english copy

This is a wonderful book for parents to read to children.

Children need that one adult who just listens! Sadly many of us find this hard to do as we are keen to help, fix, and advise. This is the perfect book to remind and teach us and to validate what children want too.

Great book for children and parents!

Really lovely book to read to my 2 year old
