5 out of 5 stars Simple but powerful message
I loved this book! It's very simplistic and the illustrations are appealing to children
I think the message about how to deal with jealously and uncontrollable feelings comes across in a sensitive and powerful way for young readers and its cleverly put together
Really great resource for parents or childcare professionals
I'm looking forward to reading the Authors other books
5 out of 5 stars Brilliant
What a fantastic book! My 11 year old daughter loved it. She was able to relate to the feeling and it brought about open discussion regarding difficult emotions and how we deal with those in a constructive, healthy way. Very impressed and would recommend highly for those looking to understand negative emotions.

A brilliant book for children - it enabled me to talk to my children about their behaviour and to give them hope, and to know there is always help around the corner - people can turn it around to a more positive life

5 out of 5 stars fantastic children's story!
Such a fantastic book! Raising awareness to young children on how their feelings effect their behaviours. A humorous story of how negative feelings can be turned to positive ones, all my kids loved it! Especially my 7 year old, it's the new favourite bed time read! We look forward to many more!

5 out of 5 stars Lovely book with meaningful story
This is a lovely, beautifully written book with a meaningful story. My 5yr old boy really enjoys it and has started referencing 'naughty nick' and the consequences of bad behaviour. This book is an excellent addition to our night time book list.

5 out of 5 stars Fun, accessible and inspirational!
This is a great, fun and very accessible book for children who need their experiences and emotions affirmed and to learn in a very positive way how to help overcome their feelings. I am a counsellor and psychotherapist working with parents whose children have emotional and behavioural difficulties, and will certainly be recommending this book to parents and to other professionals!

5 out of 5 stars Looking forward to meeting more of The Repairables.
Great book for children to read themselves or to be read to by adult. Provokes great discussion about people, feelings and behaviours in a very child friendly way. Humorous illustrations that delight children too!

This is such an inspiring read. The story reflects feelings and emotions felt day to day, and children and young people can really relate to 'Naughty Nick'. Looking forward to the next exciting story.
