Description:
Jafta is a young boy growing up in South Africa who describes his everyday feelings by comparing himself to the animals he knows and loves. When he's happy, he leaps like an impala; when he's cross, he grumbles like a warthog; when he dreams of being strong, he thinks of a mighty rhino. Through these simple, vivid animal comparisons, this gentle classic picture book helps young children recognize and express their own emotions in a relatable, imaginative way. Warm and beautifully illustrated, it's a lovely read for little ones learning to talk about how they feel.
