The Little Bag of Unsaid Things

Some feelings are difficult to explain, so Zuri carries them in an invisible little bag. As the bag grows heavier, she begins to notice the clues in her body and learns that she does not have to carry everything alone.

The Little Bag of Unsaid Things introduces four gentle steps—NOTICE • NAME • SHARE • CHOOSE—that help children identify feelings, speak with a trusted person, and choose one safe next action. Supportive responses from Ms. Anika and Dad model calm, respectful co-regulation without pressure or shame.

Caregiver phrases, discussion questions, and an interactive activity extend the book into a practical social-emotional learning resource for homes, classrooms, counselors, and therapy settings.

A warm picture book for ages 4–8. Digital edition includes the approved PDF and EPUB files with front and back covers.
