“Hello, I am the Tell-Me Tree. Why don’t you come and sit by me…”

Beautifully illustrated, this gentle picture book invites children to share how they are feeling – whether happy, sad or anywhere in between, through conversation, drawings or writing.

Includes download links to a choice of Tell-Me Tree posters for use at home or in the classroom (including one where children can add their own friends or family beneath the tree), fun templates to help children draw their own tree, and links to resources for grown-ups.

Suitable for ages 4-8, The Tell-Me Tree helps encourage discussion of feelings and emotions with friends, family and trusted grown-ups in a natural way.

From the international bestselling author of The Secret Lake, Karen Inglis. Stunning pen and ink illustrations by Anne Swift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet Book and Perfect Gift!
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2020

What a sweet book! I grabbed the ebook, but the next time I have a birthday niece or nephew in this age range, I think the paperback will be a great gift! There are several pages near the end that can be colored in and there are links to printables in the ebook version.

I love the sweet illustrations. They’re beautiful and expressive of all the various emotions we can feel, which is the heart of this book. As a parent, I appreciate that the author gives a variety of emotions we feel and doesn’t exclusively talk about sadness/worry/etc., but also talks about happiness and being proud. I also really loved that she included kids talking to their parents about their worries — thank you! This is a message I’m always trying to get across to my children, but so glad to see somebody else sharing that message to my kids.

Overall, such a sweet book and would make an excellent gift!

I have this in both hard copy and in an E-book. The hard copy goes home with my grandson and the E-book stays with me to read with him here. This author is so very good at writing children's books. My grandson gave this one 2 thumbs up. Highly recommend this book.

When kids are mad or sad and just won't talk, they need this book. It encourages kids to tell their joys and sorrows to the Tell-Me Tree. Brilliant! It's a non-threatening way to help kids talk. Interactive pages help kids draw their own Tell-Me Tree and then draw who they'll share with.

Sweet story, great illustrations. This is a winner!

5.0 out of 5 stars A simple yet powerful book to help children deal with their emotions
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 5, 2020
Verified Purchase
Don't be deceived by the slimness and simplicity of this book: as well as being beautifully illustrated and easy to read, it gives children permission to talk about their feelings and acknowledges that it's ok to have a range of feelings from happy and proud to worried and confused. Too often children bottle up their emotions, not least because they fear upsetting their parents with their concerns, and this book gives them a safe space and a prompt to open up about them, and encourages them to share their feelings with an appropriate adult, whether parent, grandparent, teacher or anyone else.

Although several of the pages provide space for the reader to fill in, so that it can serve as a workbook, in the back are links to free resources to enable you to print out coloured and mono copies of those pages, colouring sheets and much more, so teachers could use with a whole class at no extra cost, and families could use them over and over again, eg to create a feelings journal.

Given that the gentle therapies this book offers - writing, drawing, talking about feelings - are so helpful to adults too, it may even prompt parents to do the same, and in any case it may create in young readers a healthy habit of self-analysis that will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives.

Particularly important is that the whole tone of the book is upbeat, cheerful and positive, with happy children of all kinds seen to be enjoying themselves, as well as having moments of difficult emotion, so the whole thing comes across as constructive and supportive.

Highly recommended, particularly in times of difficulty, such as the covid-19 lockdown crisis during which it has been launched, but also useful at any time in a young person's life, when difficult emotions may come at them out of the blue even in the happiest of times.

I’ve used this with my 7 year old grandchildren and my 9 year old niece, who sometimes find it difficult to cope with their emotions. By reading this together and drawing/writing down what’s happening in their lives, they found it easier to talk. Sometimes you find out a bit too much information!

I am reading this book to the whole school in September. Have made an indoor tree and we have a beautiful tree on our school field to use as the tell me tree. This book encourages children to share their feelings with the tell me tree. Hopefully this will lead to the children feeling confident to share their feelings with one another. Simple story well illustrated focussed on the importance of sharing how you feel good or bad.
