Summary

Have your tiny people ever had BIG feelings? If they are anything like mine, they have them multiple times per day…sometimes multiple times per hour. Well today’s story is about FEELINGS and how all of us, including an endearing robot named Vincenzo, have to learn how to cope with them so we don’t go haywire! The Robot Who Had Feelings is the longest episode yet so it is perfect for a car ride or a date with a coloring book. Today’s episode also features my first REAL PERSON guest — my very own tiny person! You won’t want to miss hearing his froggy little four-year-old voice. Make sure you are subscribed to the podcast so you never miss a new episode! I love to hear your feedback and your ideas for future stories!
