What is the Heart? A picture book about our emotions: joy, anger, sadness, and fun.
Have you ever wished you could stop feeling when sadness, pain, and suffering become overwhelming? In Japanese, there is a word for the part of us that experiences emotions: “Kokoro.” This picture book invites readers to think about the importance of “kokoro” and the spectrum of emotions—joy, anger, sadness, and happiness—through the story of Oluga, the monster and main character.
