Today I am reading "The Heart and the Bottle" by Oliver Jeffers.
For this week’s Therapy Book Thursday, we’ll be reading "The Heart and the Bottle" by Oliver Jeffers—a beautifully illustrated and emotionally rich story that gently explores the themes of grief, emotional withdrawal, and the journey back to feeling. This poignant tale follows a curious and imaginative young girl who, after experiencing a great loss, places her heart in a bottle to protect it. But as she grows, she finds that keeping her heart locked away comes at a cost. During the livestream, we’ll reflect on how children process grief, the importance of staying connected to our feelings, and how support and curiosity can help us begin to heal. This book offers a tender entry point for caregivers, therapists, and educators to talk with children about loss, vulnerability, and emotional resilience.
