Discover Bethelene’s Illustrated Children’s Books
Bethelene Hart creates playful, compassionate stories that support children’s growth and emotional literacy. The Magic Pee and Other Surprises makes potty learning fun, inclusive, and free of shame, Ben’s Big Feelings in a Little Body helps kids understand and navigate big emotions with kindness and humour, while Big Feelings in a Little Body: Welcoming A New Baby is about learning how to handle all the emotions that come with welcoming a new baby into the family.
These books encourage confidence, acceptance and offer support for children’s feelings.
