Some days aren't easy and it can be hard to stay calm. Lanky Lemur is having a hard day, so it's lucky for him that his friend Chilla Gorilla is there to help him find his peace, calm down, and experience safety and joy.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

This book is great for Social/Emotional learning with kids. It’s wonderful to help teach about big feelings. The characters are really cute and the story was a great read!

This book was a great read. Not only for myself who tends to struggle with remembering that there is calm within myself during hard times but for my 2 sons who have also been struggling. This book had my 2 year old son holding his heart and trying to repeat the words I was saying. This is a must read for all ages as there is always room for more peace.

Chilla Gorilla and Lanky Lemur are besties for the resties. Lanky has a wide range of feelings that Chilla helps tie to an emotion. Chilla helps Lanky find his inner calm / peace / quiet / tranquility. I love children’s books that focus on emotions we feel. The only thing about this book that seemed off to me was how Chilla hold a stronger “parent” presence and even tucks Lanky into bed at the end of the day and other comments such as identifying Lanky’s emotions throughout the book. Still a very cute read with good illustrations.

Cute! I loved it! A children’s book about emotions and feelings as told by a gorilla and other animals in the jungle. The illustrations were beautiful! I recommend
