Product Description
A beautifully illustrated, reassuring story about finding comfort in the
familiar when life turns upside down. Perfect for children experiencing big
changes, from moving house to the trauma of a natural disaster.
In Hugs Still Feel the Same, life is thrown into turmoil for a
little girl and her family when their home is flooded. The water builds andbuilds until the whole town must be evacuated in the night. In the darkness,
with only flashlights to light the way and their home left behind, it feels
like all they have left is each other. But maybe that's the most important thing.
This gentle and empowering story was inspired by the author's real-life
experience of the severe flooding that engulfed parts of Australia in 2022.During six months as a volunteer for the flood recovery efforts, she witnessed
the distress and trauma caused to many families who lost their homes. Finding
the beautiful amongst the chaos was incredibly important, and there was little
more comforting than a hug from a loved one.
Hugs Still Feel the Same is a story of resilience and hope in the face
of life's difficulties. It explores the impact of big changes and trauma,providing a tool for parents and carers to help children through distressing
times. It is a big-hearted reminder that even when life feels scary and unknown,
it's possible to find comfort if we know where to look.
