The Kids’ Book of Sensitivity is a soft, steady hug in the form of a picture book. It gently walks young readers through what it means to feel deeply, notice little things others might miss, and live with a sensitive heart. Through calm words and playful illustrations, it shows how emotions live in our bodies, how to name them, how to ask for what we need, and how to take care of ourselves when the world feels a bit too loud. It’s part guide, part comfort, and entirely a celebration of noticing more, feeling more, and being okay with who you are.

I loved the tone of this children’s book. It didn’t talk down to kids—it talked with them. The language is simple but honest. I felt seen reading it, and I’m not even the target audience. The way it described emotions, from butterflies in your tummy to “tight ears at a party,” was so relatable. The “feelings thermometer” and “body map” ideas are brilliant. They don’t overcomplicate things. They’re practical, visual, and perfect for kids (and, honestly, for grown-ups too). It’s the kind of book that feels like it’s been missing from shelves for a long time.

But what really hit me was the kindness baked into every page. This book doesn’t try to fix kids or change them. So many books rush to teach or correct. This one pauses. It validates. I could see this being a lifesaver for sensitive kids who don’t always have the words yet. It also gently teaches adults to slow down and listen, too. The sections on change, making mistakes, and sensory overload were especially thoughtful—never dramatic, just honest and clear. And the watercolor artwork is absolutely fantastic.

If you know a kid who feels a little more, notices a little more, or just sometimes needs a break from the noise, this book is for them. It’s also for parents, teachers, and caregivers who want to understand and support those kids better. It’s warm, wise, and truly one of the most empathetic children’s books I’ve come across.
