I felt really sad when my cousin Tony died, and when I remembered that time. -- chapter Sadness can be a big feeling. Experiencing loss can cause lots of different feelings too.

Draw or write about the weather today in the spaces below. -- chapter When you feel sad, it might sometimes seem as if there is a big black cloud following you around. This cloud might block out the sun for a while. But, just like the weather, your feelings won't stay the same for ever. They will change.

Happy, sad, or a bit of both? -- chapter Sometimes it takes time for the weather to change and blow away the black clouds. Sometimes it can take time for your big feelings to blow away.
