My Big Shouting Day

Product Information

And it’s a lovely way to unwind after a shouty day of your own, perfect for talking about feelings and how we all have off days.

The trouble with Bella, the main character in My Big Shouting Day is that she is, as Jess and Thomas say, just too shouty. The message seems to be that we all have our off days, but that's OK, because tomorrow it will all be better.Rebecca's work is inspired by her own childhood and her children's lives, with stories often starting as games or something made up in the back of a car to amuse a child. Today I woke up and Bob was crawling around MY ROOM, licking MY JEWELLERY, so I shouted GET OUT OF MY ROOM!

Funny and well-observed, with big bold illustrations and telling facial expressions, My Big Shouting Day is ideal for classroom use. Great for teaching little ones that if they're having a tricky day, it will pass, and mummy will be there for them for a cuddle when they're ready. and that was the start of MY BIG SHOUTING DAY…”Bella is having one of those days – her biscuit is broken, she has a hurting foot and ballet is TOOOO itchy for words.

I work part time in a local primary school as a Teaching Assistant where I whisper stuff like 'I never had to know about fronted adverbials' to small children. She was engrossed in the story and there were lots of opportunities to further discussion and relate to her own experiences. Once her own children had started school, Rebecca began an MA in Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art and had her first picture books commissioned at the end of the course.

This book is so brilliantly observed that it should be compulsory reading for all mothers who think they might have stopped seeing the funny side of an impossibly opinionated toddler .After graduating, she worked at an assortment of jobs, including being an classroom assistant in a primary school, while sending out manuscripts for picture books.

The book has helped my daughter understand that sometimes when she gets angry for no reason and it may be normal as the girl inn the book does this as well. I bought this for my 17 month old Daughter but to be honest i think its a bit old for her yet so she will probably enjoy it when she is more like 3. This hilarious rhyming book by Kes Gray and illustrated by Garry Parsons is a brilliantly silly one to share, especially at bedtime in the run up to Christmas. Bought for a shouty 3 year old, who laughed as he realised that is exactly what he was like, so we turned a shouty day into a laughing day instead. Bella is having one of those days - her biscuit is broken, she has a hurting foot and ballet is TOOOO itchy for words.It has become iconic for us, and so helpful for helping toddlers/pre-schoolers and those that encounter them, understand that we all have ‘big shouting days’ sometimes, and that’s ok. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. My daughters love it - little do they know that they can be equally as ridiculous, unreasonable and shouty on occasion! i think its a great book i like the illustrations and i like the theme, its funny and cute and every parent will relate to a day of lots of shouting! But it isn't until the last page that Bella's mother makes any attempt to help her work through her feelings, while at the same time being implausibly patient.
