Freya’s Funny Feeling

Freya’s Funny Feeling – Samia Quddus

Freya’s Funny Feeling is a paperback picture book aimed at children aged 4-7 years. Inspired by conversations with children who have found the idea of butterflies in their tummy a baffling concept, Freya’s Funny Feeling recognises and acknowledges uneasy feelings experienced in various social situations.

Using the analogy of the butterfly cycle, the story cleverly draws an association between Freya’s anxious and sometimes excitable feelings and the ‘butterflies in your tummy ‘ idiom helping young readers to visualise the two concepts simultaneously.
