The Funny Feeling

Something feels odd. What should Ash do? In The Funny Feeling, Ash notices that little wobble in the tummy that tells us something is not quite right. Instead of keeping quiet, Ash learns a simple and powerful habit: if something feels odd, tell a grown-up. With the friendly refrain Is it real? Let's ask! children join in on every page, practising the words they can use in real life. Written for early readers ages 5 to 7, this picture book supports gentle conversations at home and in the classroom about trusting feelings, asking questions and speaking up. The story is warm, reassuring and never frightening. It contains no live AI features and collects no data, making it a safe choice for families and schools. A calm, practical first step towards confidence, curiosity and staying safe.
