The Feeling Bag

Jennifer Griffin wrote this picture book while helping her own daughter navigate her parents' divorce, and that emotional grounding gives it real warmth. The magical bag device for identifying feelings is functional, and a companion plush bag extends it into a therapeutic tool that counselors and parents appreciate. As a literary picture book it's thin, but as a niche resource for children going through emotional upheaval, it has genuine purpose — just know the evidence base is mostly community feedback rather than critical review.
