About this ebook
Meet Peep, a fluffy little bird who fancies himself “the world’s greatest collector.” His undersea stash is overflowing with shells, rubber bands, and other fastidiously inventoried trinkets. For his new collection, Peep has set out to gather up feelings. He believes this will be his greatest collection ever! But unlike paper clips and buttons, emotions can be much more elusive. Has the world’s greatest collector finally met his match? Hardly! Peep and his sea-dwelling buddies call on your help to name these new and intricate emotions, make sense of what they mean, and learn how to deal with them.
