Reseña del libro "Thread Girl the Brave (en Inglés)"
Thread Girl is made of colorful threads and stuffed full of feelings. She has so much energy that when she spies Earth in the distance she dives toward it before she is properly tied together. Once there, Thread Girl begins to unravel. She tries to hold her feelings inside but quickly gets so overwhelmed that she bursts and her feelings fly into a huge tangled mess. What will Thread Girl do now? Thread Girl the Brave uses beautiful illustrations and a strong heroine to teach children how to understand and talk about their feelings. This inspirational story will start important conversations about emotions and offer guidance for expressing them in healthy ways. "Thread Girl the Brave" was written and illustrated with care and understanding for the child who has experienced physical or emotional trauma, disability, lived through hurricanes, tornados, floods, fires or finds it difficult to express feelings after a disaster or intense situation. These children face unique sensory and communication challenges. This story helps them to feel compassion for Thread Girl and her struggles, and as they identify with her, they also develop a sense of compassion for themselves. Thread Girl teaches children ways to be calm and centered in relation to their often-unpredictable environment. It is for children who feel overwhelmed and scattered during family transitions such as the birth of siblings, moving, divorce, or death. It deals with universal issues of loss, anger, fear, frustration, grief, confusion, and loneliness in a subtle and comforting way. Parents, teachers, and therapists can use "Thread Girl the Brave" as a prompt to initiate conversations about stress management while nurturing emotional literacy in children.
