Big Feelings, Small Paws
The Pickles The Cat series was born from a simple idea: kids feel big things, and they deserve tools to handle those feelings without shame. Tyler Blandin created Pickles as a character kids could laugh with, color alongside, and learn from — not a lecture, but a friend.
The first book, Pickles Learns to Cope With Anger, is a coloring and activity book. It gives kids a hands-on way to name what they're feeling, practice healthy responses, and see that anger doesn't make them bad — it makes them human.
More adventures are on the way. Pickles has a lot more to figure out — and your child gets to figure it out alongside him.
