Popcorn

This handbook, created in collaboration with EmpathyLab, the UK’s leading empathy research organisation, includes accessible tools for building empathy skills and is packed with case studies that children can relate to and learn from for real life scenarios.

And what if you’ve always dreamed of being a scientist but you can’t see anyone who looks or sounds like you, and who has left a legacy – in the form of microscopes and Bunsen burners – for you to follow?

Molly Forbes e Mollie Cronin
We all have a body. They don’t always function the same as other people’s. And they certainly don’t all look the same. But one thing is certain – every body deserves respect.
This is an essential guide to embracing and respecting all bodies, for readers aged 9+. Sometimes social media can make us feel like we’re not good enough if we don’t have a ‘perfect’ body. But the truth is, everyone feels bad about their bodies sometimes – even celebrities with millions of followers. Author and campaigner Molly Forbes is here to show you that you – and ONLY you – get to decide how you feel about your body.
And if we want to change the conversation around body image, we need to advocate for every single body – including those that look or function differently from our own. It’s time to stop criticising the way we look, and celebrate all our glorious differences!
