小男孩 Arlo 最期待每個星期天去探望奶奶了。
每次只要一進門,奶奶總會指著那個「特別的罐子」,裡面裝滿了她特地為 Arlo 準備的新奇糖果。
對 Arlo 來說,那個罐子就是奶奶愛的象徵。
然而,當奶奶過世後,一切都變了。
Arlo 把那個空罐子留在身邊,緊緊抱著它,彷彿這樣就能感覺奶奶還在身邊,這讓他感到安全。
但隨著日子過去,那股思念的「難過」慢慢變成了「生氣」。
他不明白為什麼奶奶要離開,他不想要空罐子,他想要奶奶!
Arlo 心裡的怒火越來越大,罐子裡竟然也開始出現了一股小小的烏雲,隨後演變成一場狂暴的閃電與風暴。
終於,Arlo 再也受不了了!在一陣情緒爆發中,他用力地摔碎了那個罐子。
當風暴從罐子裡呼嘯而出時,原本被壓抑的憤怒與悲傷也隨之釋放。
在風暴平息後,Arlo 發現,原來釋放情緒並不代表失去愛,
他開始學習用更健康的方式去記住奶奶,讓心裡的風暴化為平靜的思念。
Arlo visited Nana every Sunday, and she would always have new sweets waiting for him inside a special jar. So when Arlo finds out Nana has passed away, he keeps the jar with him to feel safe and closer to his Nana. But as his sadness turns to anger, a storm builds inside the jar, until Arlo has enough – and smashes it open! What will happen when the storm rushes out?
A story that encourages children to talk about bereavement and anger, and explore ways to manage, embrace, and safely release them. It also includes a science experiment, and a guide to make a ‘glitter jar’ to help with anger.
