In the spotlight
Big conversations start small, and often much earlier than we think. In Joss and the Lucky Boots, psychologist Dr Julie Paine introduces Django, a very small dog with a talent for sniffing out worries, and a gentle way of helping a child talk about what's really bothering them.
We love it for its kindness, its lovely illustrations by Nicola Metcalfe, and the fact that it quietly teaches a skill many of us only learn much later: that saying a worry out loud makes it lighter. A particular gorgeous thing is that you can buy a Django the Worry Dog with a gift box to keep close at hand.
