The Nurts Tales: Growing Strong, Inside and Out

Me and my daughter Sandra absolutely love it! The stories are so vivid and engaging that Sandra keeps asking me to read it to her every day—and even after we finish, she loves flipping through the pages on her own. The 5 short stories are clear, simple, and come with great reflection prompts. It naturally teaches children about healthy nutrition, sharing, and being kind without feeling preachy. A wonderful, heart-warming book that makes reading time both fun and meaningful. Highly recommended for parents!

I have enjoyed using The Nurts Tales: Growing Strong, Inside and Out in my classroom, particularly during our PSHE lessons. The topics explored throughout the book have provided valuable opportunities for my students to reflect on different issues they may be facing in their own lives. I have found that the stories offer a gentle and accessible way to introduce sensitive topics, encourage meaningful discussions and help students develop a better understanding of themselves and others.

We love all the 5 stort stories in this book! It covers really good and practical topics on emotional regulation, screen time, nutrition, voicing out health concerns and supporting someone living with cancer. I really enjoy the reflection prompts available at the end of every story. It gives me a chance to further discuss the story with my 6 year old son ❤️

We absolutely enjoyed reading this book! It comes with not just one, but five short stories covering different topics. I especially love the reflection prompts, as they give me the opportunity to have meaningful conversations with my daughter after each story. Besides the familiar Nurts characters - Zoey, Mia, Liam, and Noah, this book also introduces Teddy Paws, whom my daughter absolutely loves. 🧸 As a mum, I love finding books that are fun to read while also teaching meaningful life lessons. The stories are easy for little ones to understand and encourage them to imagine, relate, and learn how to handle similar emotions and situations in real life. The illustrations are bright, colourful, and full of expression, which kept my daughter engaged from start to finish. It's one of those books that she requests to read again and again - and that's the best review a toddler can give! ❤️📚

Honestly, if you want a book to actually read with your kids instead of just reading to them, get this one. The stories hit so close to home with real, everyday situations that my daughter related to it straight away. We’ve re-read it so many times now, and I’m already seeing a massive difference in how she handles her emotions and reacts to real-life situations. She is way better at managing her day-to-day feelings and is able to understand and react to situations appropriately. Plus, she is opening up about her thoughts so much more than before. It’s been an absolute game-changer for us as parents because we can finally understand what’s going on in her head and properly guide her. I also really love the reflection prompts and Teddy Paws' tips at the end of the stories. Instead of just rushing through the pages, those little questions make both us parents and our child stop, think, and reflect together. It has sparked some really great conversations. Hands down one of our favorite books now!

We loved the book! All the short stories are so relatable to our children because they are events that will happen. We also love tips from Teddy Paws because it helps us parents and also our children so both has something to gain. The children felt that we are in this together. The reflection prompts section is also a good one because we can be interactive with our children after 1 story and practice their focus and listening skill. All the stories included a doctor’s advice and children tends to take it better when it comes from a doctor’s point of view. I think this collaboration is amazing! But just as the title said Growing strong inside and out, as much as we want our children’s body to be healthy, their feelings and inner voice is equally important. The stories reminded us, it’s okay to have feelings, be it sad or angry and even being sick, it’s important to speak up, to talk to someone about it or ask for help. Love the friendship that was portrayed and kindness that reflected in each stories. This really teaches our children to have empathy too. I really recommend this book to all parents to get it for their children because everything is so applicable in our lives. Big love! Thank you, Nurts for publishing this book!

I truly enjoyed reading this book with my kids. What I love most is how relatable and applicable it is to their everyday lives. The content is age-appropriate, easy for them to understand, and presented in a way that really engages them. The five short stories are beautifully written, meaningful, and so easy for children to connect with. I especially love how Teddy Paws, in the form of a teddy, adds such a comforting touch to the stories. It gives children a sense of comfort and reassurance, while helping them feel seen and understood when they experience similar situations or emotions in their own lives. It makes the stories feel even more personal and relatable to them. The story about emotional regulation is especially meaningful to me as a parent. It is something I know I will remind my kids of when they have emotional outbursts, helping them remember the lessons from the story and giving them a simple way to understand and manage their big feelings. The practical examples and exercises are also such a wonderful addition because they give my kids something they can actually do when they experience similar feelings or situations. I love the easy reflection prompts that encourage them to pause, think about their own feelings and experiences, and answer questions in a simple and meaningful way. It also creates a wonderful opportunity for parents and children to have deeper conversations together. I really appreciate the helpful medical advice included in the book too. It provides parents with valuable and reassuring information while giving us a better understanding of what our growing children may be experiencing. As a parent, I’m always looking for resources that can help me better understand, guide, and support my children as they grow, and I feel this book does exactly that. It is a thoughtful, practical, and meaningful resource for both children and parents. I would genuinely and highly recommend this book to parents with growing kids! ❤️

This is a lovely book with 5 short stories about emotional regulation; screen time; nutrition; voicing out health concerns; supporting someone living with cancer. Initially I thought I could read this book with my children in a go but ended up we took a few days to learn each story since my kids asked lots of questions. “Mummy, how the kids go to the hospital? Who fetch them go?” “Mummy, how Zoey put her tablet on a high shelf since it’s so high up?” Both Isaac (6y5m) & Bethany (3y10m) love the story of “Zoey & the Ninja Training Camp”. I felt that each story has many words especially for Bethany but the colourful illustrations definitely is an add on point to help children understand the stories better. I personally like the Tips from Teddy Paws at the end of each story. It would be better if it is being recapped in short and simple action verbs: 1. When you feel angry ~ Take a slow breaths from your belly, let’s count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.. 2. Screen time ~ Let’s follow the 20-20-20 rule (Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds). 3. Choosing healthy food ~ Let’s build My Healthy Plate (Quarter Quarter Half) 4. Speak up ~ “I feel… in my… when I…” 5. When someone in the family is ill ~ Be kind and show love. You can make a card; you can sing a song. I would suggest a vocabulary section where it explains some words that are slightly difficult for kids such as moat, ultra-processed food, hoarse, wobbled. My children will definitely read this book over and over again. Thank you The Nurts.

It's a book that helps parents to discuss the topic and reflect the emotions that we seldom talk about with our children. For example why shall we cut down screentime, how to express it when they experiencing body discomfort... Through stories it makes children easier to understand. We enjoy reading the stories and discuss the topic together!

The short stories are what I am looking for in a book as the attention spent is very short in my child. I am also teaching him on emotions so it’s an excellent book to read to him.

Thank you, The Nurts, for creating such a wonderful book. The illustrations are beautiful, vibrant, and highly engaging, making it enjoyable for both parents and children. Although the text is relatively wordy, the pictures effectively tell the story, allowing my 3-year-old daughter to easily follow the storyline and stay engaged throughout. We really enjoyed reading it together, and it has become a lovely addition to our bedtime reading routine.

As a parent, I’m always looking for ways to help my child understand their feelings and the world around them. This book gives us a gentle starting point for those conversations. The stories are engaging for children, while the lessons behind them are meaningful for the whole family
