Sally the skunk enjoys the meadow until a thunderstorm rolls in. Follow along as Sally senses and experiences fear, runs and hides, and learns to cope with her emotions with the help of her friends, eventually playing in the rain after the storm. With a focus on social and emotional learning (SEL), tightly controlled vocabulary, and bright, fun illustrations to match the storyline and enhance empathy, children will learn about fear and its associated thoughts, bodily sensations, and reactions in a supportive educational fiction reading experience.

Children can learn more about fear and other emotions using Fact Surfer, our safe online search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. This book also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a picture glossary, index, table of contents, and comprehensive visual quiz.
