When a small sailor is swamped at sea, a kind dragon named Kindred comes to the rescue. The sage sea creature helps the shipwrecked child navigate stormy emotions. Seeing Sailor's distress, she asks "What's going on?" and offers ways for Sailor to express and soothe upsets.
With Kindred swimming alongside, Sailor recognizes and releases the raging feelings. The emotions move on. And so does Sailor, through troubled times to discover Kindred's treasure.
From the author: Kindred's Treasure is a study in regulating emotions and restoring equilibrium. These skills free us to be who we want to be and not be defined by suffering. Among the book's lessons is naming, not ignoring feelings.
Some emotions like joy, happiness and good surprises are easily experienced with a laugh and smile. Others are more difficult. They too need to be allowed and expressed with just one rule: No harming. Back matter shares several difficult feelings and ways to express them.
