Books to Guide Young Kids Through Some of Life’s Challenges

Curated by

Juliette Bottomley

One of the easiest ways of helping young children through some of the unsettling times that life can throw at them is through stories. Books are a gentle way to start up conversations about those tricky topics and can often find a way to help children understand. From worries about moving to a new home to dealing with the loss of a loved one, from learning to understand our differences to coping with a new sibling. Here are some of our favourites.
