Tilda Tries Again: A Big Bright Feelings Book

Product Information

What was your favourite book when you were a child?Tim and Tobias is the first book in the ‘Flight Path to Reading’ reading scheme and was written by Sheila K. McCullagh. It was the first book that I remember loving and was (guess what) atmospheric, magical and slightly dark. A lovely book which supports children’s emotional well-being and mental health by promoting resilience, problem-solving and a can-do attitude when challenges occur. Another tremendous triumph from Tom Percival with Tilda Tries Again - dare I say it might even be my Big Bright Feelings picture book yet! This book would be a FAB addition to any child’s bookshelf with its bright and bold illustrations, it’s encouragement of managing feeings and it’s message to persevere and not to give up. Reading and literacy are so important. It doesn’t matter what your disability is, reading is accessible to everyone.

Tilda Tries Again is the latest release from Tom Percival's 'Big Bright Feelings' collection of books. In this picture book, we follow a young girl called Tilda as she happily enjoys life in her world. Her world is full of friends, books and toys…in fact it is perfect in her eyes. Tilda takes great comfort in knowing her world inside out, knowing where everything is and knowing what to expect…it could be said that she is a creature of habit - a trait that many readers, and young children, will relate to. The youngsters directed their father from the TV gallery, helped count down and shouted ‘action’ when the cameras started rolling. A priceless lesson for any child--or adult--conveyed in a beautifully child-friendly manner . . . A valuable asset to the library of a child who experiences anxiety and a great book to get children talking about their feelings. I needed this when I was little. Along with Percival's Ruby Finds a Worry, it would have made me feel a lot less lonely in the world when I was sad and scared, and would have helped me through.

Tilda Tries Again (Big Bright Feelings) by Tom Percival

I’ve never really been one for reading ‘how to write’ books, which is exactly why I love this book. It’s more like a series of essays on the sorts of thing that you might want to consider if you are trying to write any sort of long form fiction (as I am!). It doesn’t deal with any actual ‘step-by-step’ breakdowns of what to do, but reminds you of key principles, such as being emotionally honest. It’s also hugely entertaining and revealing in its own right. Be open, be honest, be you! Big Bright Feelings for little people. Tilda's world is just as she likes it . . . until one day, it turns completely UPSIDE DOWN. All of a sudden, everything is topsy-turvy, and nothing feels right. Things that were once easy now seem incredibly challenging. Can Tilda discover a new way to approach her problems and believe in herself? Watch a ‘read aloud’ video based on this book. Could you record your own narrated version of the story? Tilda doesn't like change. Why would she, when her life is great just the way it is? But one day, Tilda's world turns completely UPSIDE DOWN. All of a sudden, everything is topsy-turvy, and nothing feels right. Things that were once easy now seem incredibly challenging. Everything is just so different and hard. Can Tilda discover a way to move forward and embrace all this change? Bold, bright, and empowering, this inspiring story about coping with unexpected changes is perfect for helping children build resilience.

It is positive, entertaining and such a well-written story that children will relate to. What is so good is that Tilda brushes herself down and decides to try again. It also refrains from it being a sob story or self-centred story. It does in a fun way, promote reslience and that there will be a better day. It could also have a positive impact on children in a way that may just make them feel good inside and out and ready to try again, as Tilda does. Former Rugby League player Rob Burrow will be the first non-verbal star to read a CBeebies Bedtime Story.
