Sophie's Rainbow Heart

By: Spiessl

When Sophie wakes up one morning, her heart feels different - not red or yellow or blue, but a mix of colours she can't quite name. With the help of her caring teacher, Mrs Hartley, Sophie begins to explore what those colours might mean. Together, they discover that our hearts can change with our feelings - green when we're calm, yellow when we're excited, blue when we're sad, and even purple when we're brave.

Through this gentle classroom conversation, Sophie learns that every feeling has a place and that her rainbow heart is a beautiful reflection of them all.

Sophie's Rainbow Heart is a tender story about emotional awareness, kindness, and connection. Written by April Spiessl and beautifully illustrated by Julia Dietrich, this heartwarming picture book helps children recognise and name their emotions while reminding them that it's okay to feel more than one thing at a time.

Perfect for early childhood and primary classrooms, counselling sessions, or bedtime reading at home, Sophie's Rainbow Heart supports emotional literacy, empathy, and belonging - making it a must-have for parents, teachers, and caregivers alike. With vibrant illustrations and a message that celebrates every shade of feeling, this book encourages meaningful conversations about the magic of emotions and the beauty of being human.
