Emotions: nervousness, fear, uncertainty, anger

A comforting book for children which acknowledges negative experiences and emotions while offering reassurance through the everlasting love of an adult. Bell illustrates umbrellas throughout the book, providing a nice cohesion for an otherwise book of lists. While The Big Umbrella by Amy June Bates provides a symbol of togetherness, community, and gathering together, Bell uses the umbrella to demonstrate protection and comfort between one individual to another.
