Simon's Sadness

What’s gentle, heartfelt, and beautifully relatable? Simon’s journey through sadness, that’s what.
Can kids learn to sit with tough feelings and come out stronger on the other side?

Simon is just like many other kids—he loves music, dancing, playing with friends, and quiet moments. But when sadness shows up unannounced, Simon doesn’t know what to do. His energy fades, his smile disappears, and he begins to wonder if he’s the only one who feels this way. Through his journey, Simon discovers that emotions for kids—even big, heavy ones—are not only normal but something we can understand, express, and move through.
