Exploring the journey of faith and self-discovery, the author reflects on her experiences within a Christian culture focused on action and conformity. By embodying every character of the Good Samaritan parable, she invites readers to examine their own roles within various religious contexts, including conservative evangelicalism and new monastic communities. Through her narrative of theological deconstruction, she reveals the potential harm of a zealous desire to do good while also uncovering the mercy found in moments of loss and uncertainty.
Meet a boy with feelings so big that they glow from his cheeks, spill out of his eyes, and jump up and down on his chest. When a loud truck drives by, he cries. When he hears a joke, he bursts with joy. When his loved ones are having a hard day, he feels their emotions as if they were his own. The boy tries to cope by stuffing down his feelings, but with a little help and artistic inspiration, the boy realizes his feelings are something to be celebrated. Written by debut picture book author Britney Winn Lee and boldly illustrated by Jacob Souva, The Boy with Big, Big Feelings is relatable for any child, but especially for children experiencing anxiety and extreme emotions, or who have been diagnosed with autism or as a Highly Sensitive Person.
