About This Book

Children express different moods, including "I feel very mad", "I feel like reading books all day", and "I feel like wearing funny underwear".

Our Review

This vibrant picture book explores the wide spectrum of emotions that young children experience, from feeling very mad to wanting to wear funny underwear. Todd Parr's signature bold illustrations and simple, declarative sentences make complex feelings accessible and understandable for preschoolers. The book provides a wonderful vocabulary starter for talking about emotions, helping kids identify and name what's happening inside. It’s a fantastic tool for parents to open conversations about feelings and emotional awareness with their little ones.

What makes this emotional learning book so effective is its non-judgmental and often humorous approach, validating every feeling a child might have. The relatable, sometimes silly scenarios assure children that all their emotions are normal and okay to express. This is an ideal choice for any family looking to build their child's social-emotional skills in a positive, engaging way. It’s the kind of book that becomes a trusted resource during both calm moments and emotional storms.
