Biscuit's Happy-Day Jar

About This Story

A rainy morning feels gloomy to Biscuit the hamster. His jar of small treasured objects becomes a way to revisit ordinary memories and notice moments of comfort alongside an uncomfortable day.

Read this story together at your child’s pace. The pictures and the character’s choices can be a starting point for noticing feelings and asking questions, rather than searching for a correct response. A child may want to talk, point to an illustration or simply listen. Leave room for their own interpretation, and return to a favourite moment if they wish. The suggested age range and themes help you choose a book; they do not set a test for how a child should understand or respond to the story.
