「失去」!小女孩聽到媽媽的嘆氣聲,令她回想起自己也曾失去過的點點滴滴。小女孩會怎樣面對現實生活中不能避免的變遷呢?

"So much loss!" The little girl heard her mother's sigh, reminding her of the bits and pieces she had also lost. How will she face the inevitable changes in her life?

關於這本書

環境的轉變,不單對成人,孩子也很直接地被影響着。本書以移民為切入點,引導孩子思考自己曾經面對過的各種「失去」,了解「失去」是一種怎麼樣的感覺,並帶出只要好好疏理這些經歷和隨之而來的情緒,「失去」也可轉化成正能量。

《尋回心裏的小獅子》是一本為正在面對轉變的小孩和其家人的心理需要而出版的繪本。

Changes affect adults as well as children at different levels. This book uses immigration as a theme to guide children to think about the various "losses" they have faced, and to understand what it feels like to experience loss. We want children to learn that as long as they manage these experiences and the emotions that come with them well, "loss" can also be transformed into positive energy.

“The Lion in my Heart” is a book written for children and their families who are facing transitions of any kind.

作者介紹

作者:

Jamie
美國哥倫比亞大學輔導心理學系碩士畢業。分別在紐約和香港從事兒童心理、親子關係、家長教育的工作。透過與兒童互動溝通,發現繪本對兒童學習事物和情感投射的重要性。常與兒童一起讀繪本、說故事、分享生活。作者希望藉 此繪本,以香港人說香港事,讓香港孩子在閱讀過程中,產生更大共鳴。

Jamie received her Master in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University. She has been working in the US and HK addressing children's mental health, family dynamics and parenting. Jamie sees how picture books play a role in children's development, therefore seizes every opportunity to read with children and share life experiences. In creating this book, she hopes it elicits a personal resonance in children in Hong Kong.

Grace
畢業於美國紐約大學社會工作哲學博士學位。她擔任臨床社會工作者和遊戲治療師超過十年。作為三個孩子的母親,經歷一家大小穿州過省,她明白在這個遷移的過程中提供孩子空間表達自己的重要性,因而開始這個寫兒童繪本的歷程。她希望將自己的「根」更清晰地傳給孩子,所以用香港作為此書的背景。

Grace obtained her Ph.D. in Social Work from New York University. She has been a clinical social worker and play therapist in the mental health field for over a decade.
As a mother of three who experienced moving to various countries with her family, she understands the importance of supporting children through the process. She wants her children to know her "roots" and hence decided to write a book with Hong Kong, her country-of-origin, as the backdrop.
