About This Book
An unruly cast of emotions come alive in this romping dreamworld, a place Maurice Sendakβs Wild Things could call home Curiosity, a lithe and floppy-eared creature, perches above the open world and gazes out with a zippy blend of hope, wonder, and longing. From the tip of a chimney, we bound into the quiet and mischievous world of feelings, meeting a troupe of tufted creatures as we go. Sympathy helps snails cross a sidewalk to safety, fear pirouettes in an attempt to camouflage with wallflowers
Our Review
This imaginative picture book introduces young children to the complex world of emotions through a cast of whimsical, tufted creatures inhabiting a dreamlike landscape reminiscent of Maurice Sendak's work. Each feeling takes physical form as a distinct character, from the floppy-eared Curiosity gazing at the world with wonder to the pirouetting Fear trying to blend with wallflowers. The story creates a gentle, visual vocabulary for emotional awareness and social-emotional learning, helping preschoolers identify and name their own feelings through these charming personifications. This emotional exploration book provides a safe, engaging space for children to begin understanding the colorful spectrum of human emotions.
What distinguishes this emotional intelligence book is how it transforms abstract feelings into relatable characters with specific actions and personalities, making complex internal states accessible to young minds. Children will connect with Sympathy helping snails cross the sidewalk and Fear's attempts to camouflage, seeing their own experiences reflected in these tender scenarios. The lyrical text and imaginative illustrations create a perfect bedtime story that opens conversations about empathy, self-awareness, and emotional development. Parents seeking tools for emotional literacy will find this book opens meaningful dialogues while captivating children with its magical world of feelings brought to life.
