Casper & Bentley Learn Big Feelings: Jealousy

A gentle emotional intelligence story for young children

This book is part of the Casper & Bentley Emotional Intelligence series, created to support young children in understanding big feelings in a calm, reassuring way.

Through the story of two very different dogs — one older and steady, one younger and still learning — children are gently introduced to jealousy:
what it feels like in the body, why it can show up when others have attention or something we want, and how it can soften when it is understood rather than judged.

This book is especially helpful for:

• children aged 2–7

• children with ADHD or heightened emotional sensitivity

• parents who want to support difficult feelings without shaming, fixing, or minimising

The focus is not on changing behaviour, but on emotional awareness — helping children learn that jealous feelings are normal, temporary, and do not define who they are.

Each book includes a short parent guide, offering simple ways to use the story to build emotional understanding in everyday moments.

Casper & Bentley Learn Big Feelings: Jealousy is designed to be read slowly, revisited often, and grown into over time.
