A good and easy “self-help” book for parents to “help” their child with their emotions! LOVE IT!
Format: Hardcover
Wow! I love that this book was written by a licensed professional counselor! I love that I’m familiar with this author’s other books which I own and have read. I love that this book addresses so many emotions a child will have! My favorite is “Jealous” because she perfectly depicts a birthday party and we all know that siblings can easily become jealous over all the attention, the gifts, the cake…
The pictures pair beautifully with the words/emotions. I love this illustrator, she is amazing and gifted! You are easily drawn in by the details and colors in each picture! It really gives my child lots of images and things to look at and relate to as you read to them.
I also love the emotion “Peaceful” because when you look at the illustrations of the water and floating on a tube while your hand is resting in the water and you are gently kicking your feet, that looks and feels peaceful and I know my child can relate to that.
This is a very easy to understand book. I loved that each emotion was on two pages and you didn’t need to turn the page, it was all there for you to process and read. The entire explanation of the emotion was a simple way for my child to grasp the concept and give simple choices on how to deal with the emotion. For me including God in the equation was awesome and important and that was also simple and easy to understand.
