The perfect way for kids to explore the wide range of emotions they feel every day--complete from A to Z with bright, bold illustrations! From anxious to zany, kids experience a wide range of emotions, but they don't often have the language to explain how they're feeling. ABC of Feelings explains that it's perfectly okay--and normal!--to feel many different things, and gives both kids and parents the tools they need to make the abstract nature of feelings and emotions easier to discuss and understand.
Beautifully illustrated by Madalena Moniz’s subtle watercolors, Today I Feel . . . follows a child through a whole range of emotions, from adored to curious to strong. Not all of the emotions are positive and not all of them are simple, but they are all honest and worthy of discussion with a young child.
"This richly decorated picture book celebrates feelings - emotional and physical, joyful and challenging. It invites young children to share their experiences with family, friends and carers. The sensitive, engaging text offers gentle ideas for managing fear, anger, sadness and jealousy"--Publisher's description.
