Watch Me Bloom When I Have Big Feelings, by Grace Ledden, is a thoughtful and engaging picture book that introduces young readers to Noah, a boy on the autism spectrum. The narrative centers around Noah's journey in managing his intense emotions, particularly a bout of overwhelming anger. The story takes an imaginative turn when Noah encounters Bud, a gnome who magically appears to guide him. Bud, as Noah's 'bloom buddy,' symbolizes support and understanding, offering a unique perspective on handling challenging feelings.
The illustrations by CyAn Platas play a significant role in the book's appeal. Platas excels in creating visually accessible and engaging images that complement the narrative, ensuring that the essence of the story is conveyed even to those who might struggle with the text. The book's design is further enhanced by full-panel digital artwork and the inclusion of a QR code leading to coloring pages. This innovative feature engages young readers and helps reinforce the story's themes. Grace Ledden demonstrates her adeptness in understanding her young audience. Acknowledging that the concept of an imaginary friend like Bud might not resonate with every child, Ledden offers alternative strategies for managing emotions. These are presented in the form of a 'bloom' tree at the book's end, suggesting practical steps such as seeking help or spending time outdoors. This book stands out as a valuable resource not just for children on the autism spectrum but for any young reader grappling with intense emotions. It also serves as a supportive tool for parents, offering them insights and methods to assist their children.
Watch Me Bloom When I Have Big Feelings is a commendable effort by Ledden. It blends imaginative storytelling with practical, emotional guidance, making it a noteworthy addition to children's literature.
