Rating: 4 out of 5.

This is a story about Sherman raccoon, who sees something very bad happen. He finds himself feeling angry, sad and confused, sick in the tummy and acting unkindly to other children, but he doesn’t know why he is this way. Eventually, he talks to someone about what he saw. This person helps him sort through his feelings through drawing, play and imagination. The book draws our attention to what can happen when children witness traumatic events, whether they be big or small. Suitable for children aged 4 and up.
