Six beautifully illustrated storybooks address the themes of: Loss, Anger, Self-Esteem, Bullying, Worries and Family Break-Up. Additionally there are characters, props and scenes to invite the child to act out their own story, asking the question, "What happens next?..."

30 colourful free-standing characters, six background scenes and a number of additional props.
