I liked the description of each feeling that was presented every two pages and the illustrations that went along with it。 They flowed together perfectly and the rhyme of the descriptions was spot on。 I also liked how it ended by saying， "For though you cannot see them， feelings are still strong and real"。 I liked the description of each feeling that was presented every two pages and the illustrations that went along with it。 They flowed together perfectly and the rhyme of the descriptions was spot on。 I also liked how it ended by saying， "For though you cannot see them， feelings are still strong and real"。 。。。more

A "cut out" book with the person or main character showing through on every page。 As you move through the book， the character seems bigger。 Cute decor of book and pages are rough not smooth。 Another good book to promote well being， diversity and emotions。 Quite the theme these days。 A "cut out" book with the person or main character showing through on every page。 As you move through the book， the character seems bigger。 Cute decor of book and pages are rough not smooth。 Another good book to promote well being， diversity and emotions。 Quite the theme these days。 。。。more

After learning about social-emotional development and the importance of giving children the right resources to express how they feel， Feelings is a top contender to do that。 Poems about the different emotions， ranging from happiness to anger。 I feel as this book could be used as a self reflection to most students and after going over one emotion， you could have them explain a time they felt that way and what they can do to overcome those feelings。

After learning about the importance of emotional literacy in primary schools， I was really excited when I saw this book。 I liked Walden’s take on the different feelings and emotions - some， more than others， I could really relate to。 I was also impressed with how well the illustrations accompanied the text。 I picked this up from a Year 1 classroom so would assume it would be most suitable for this age group？

I absolutely adored this book， and as a trainee teacher， will definitely be using it in future classes to discuss feelings。 The artwork is simply incredible too！

This precious book discussing about different emotions， not only a child， but a person feels。 Sad， jealous， happy， excited， angry， you name it。 I love how beautifully the authors describe the different emotions and that no matter what we feel， that feeling is valid and it's okay to feel those emotions， even the negative ones。This book also teaches the readers to empathize others， to understand why one is feeling the way they are feeling at the moment。 Because in the end of the day， we're just hu This precious book discussing about different emotions， not only a child， but a person feels。 Sad， jealous， happy， excited， angry， you name it。 I love how beautifully the authors describe the different emotions and that no matter what we feel， that feeling is valid and it's okay to feel those emotions， even the negative ones。This book also teaches the readers to empathize others， to understand why one is feeling the way they are feeling at the moment。 Because in the end of the day， we're just humans with feelings。The illustrations and the colours used are brilliant。 I love a good children book with pretty illustrations and even though most of the colours used seems to be soft and pastel but they are somehow vibrant in their own way representing each emotion。 Plus， that 'whole' that carved out according to the boy's illustration is amazing too！ I'm obsessed！ 。。。more

A beautiful book that would be perfect for PSHE and learning to understand and regulate emotions。

This books carefully explains feelings and what they mean。 Its almost like it is an informative text by giving a small definition of each feeling and emotion。 The poetry flows flawlessly throughout the entire book。 I love the language used in this book because it keeps it simple for children to understand without being overwhelmed。 I love how at the end it explains that your feelings may be different than someone else's。 It also states that your feelings make you who you are and you shouldn't be This books carefully explains feelings and what they mean。 Its almost like it is an informative text by giving a small definition of each feeling and emotion。 The poetry flows flawlessly throughout the entire book。 I love the language used in this book because it keeps it simple for children to understand without being overwhelmed。 I love how at the end it explains that your feelings may be different than someone else's。 It also states that your feelings make you who you are and you shouldn't be ashamed of that。 The illustrations perfectly match the description on the pages and a new color is introduced to every emotion/feeling。 This book is perfect for younger children to understand what feelings and emotions are and that not everyone will feel the same。 。。。more

A first look at feelings。A child is standing alone， naming and ever-so briefly exploring 11 emotions felt， including bravery， sadness， anger， happiness， jealousy， and alone-ness。 Two rhyming couplets describe each emotion felt， with varying degrees of success。 There is little more than a mention of each emotion - no explanation or examples which may leave young readers confused as to the purpose of this book （ex。 anger - a double-page spread of a black volcano exploding in shades of red， brown a A first look at feelings。A child is standing alone， naming and ever-so briefly exploring 11 emotions felt， including bravery， sadness， anger， happiness， jealousy， and alone-ness。 Two rhyming couplets describe each emotion felt， with varying degrees of success。 There is little more than a mention of each emotion - no explanation or examples which may leave young readers confused as to the purpose of this book （ex。 anger - a double-page spread of a black volcano exploding in shades of red， brown and orange - describes built-up pressure underground and then describes a volcanic explosion。） A parent's note or list of suggestions on how to use this book would be useful。Illustrations by Richard Jones are done largely in pastels， though colors are a bit muddy-looking。 A cut out to the child in the story extends from the cover of the book until he/she finds a friend or two to share feelings。 There is a "patchwork" feel to many of the spreads， though there is usually one illustration that covers most of the two-page spread。There are better books explaining emotions to young children， for PreSchool-PreK。 。。。more

This is an incredibly insightful book for children to help understand and regulate emotions。 The beautiful illustrations and simple yet relatable language allow children to reflect upon their own thoughts and emotions。 Although the style of this book seems to be aimed more towards key stage one， with a greater picture to word ratio， I believe this to be extremely beneficial for key stage two also。 While it is an excellent book to have in the book corner/library of。 Classroom， introducing the boo This is an incredibly insightful book for children to help understand and regulate emotions。 The beautiful illustrations and simple yet relatable language allow children to reflect upon their own thoughts and emotions。 Although the style of this book seems to be aimed more towards key stage one， with a greater picture to word ratio， I believe this to be extremely beneficial for key stage two also。 While it is an excellent book to have in the book corner/library of。 Classroom， introducing the book into lessons would allow for children to create greater meaning from the book。 The emotions within the book can be a centre of discussion for class and allow the children to explore their emotional selves within PHSE。 Furthermore， this book could be used in support of literacy， to aid understanding of characters within other books。This book will certainly have a place within my future classroom！ 。。。more

Perfect for building an understanding both of our own emotions， and then realising these emotions are also experienced similarly in others; development of empathy and understanding。

A new favourite picture book of mine！ This book beautifully shows a large number of different emotions and how these can make you feel。 This would be perfect to use with younger children who often struggle to identify how they are feeling as well as older children who may feel like they are different because of their feelings。 Each page shows a different emotion and the book ends by explaining how each person feels differently and we should think about how other people might be feeling in the sa A new favourite picture book of mine！ This book beautifully shows a large number of different emotions and how these can make you feel。 This would be perfect to use with younger children who often struggle to identify how they are feeling as well as older children who may feel like they are different because of their feelings。 Each page shows a different emotion and the book ends by explaining how each person feels differently and we should think about how other people might be feeling in the same situation。 This book would be fantastic to use to base PSHE lessons around as it would generate good discussions about how the children are feeling。 It could also be read one to one with a child if they are struggling with their emotions。 。。。more

Great picture book which explores a variety of emotions and feeling （metaphors）。 The language to describe the feelings is relatable but still manages to explain that everyone's feelings aren't the same。 Really useful book to help children understand the nature of feelings Great picture book which explores a variety of emotions and feeling （metaphors）。 The language to describe the feelings is relatable but still manages to explain that everyone's feelings aren't the same。 Really useful book to help children understand the nature of feelings 。。。more

Beautiful and useful picture book that describes all the feelings a small boy may be feeling。 Lyrical writing， soft toned illustrations and an intriguing boy shaped cut out on each page showing that all of these big emotions are inside this young person。

A lovely book that could be used as the basis for a PSHE lesson on feelings。 I read this with KS2 children I was looking after in a boarding house when they were experiencing various emotions。 It really helped to open up the conversations about how they were feeling etc。 The artwork that accompanies the text is beautiful and the image of a child at the centre of every page is very powerful。

Sympatyczna książka， która będzie idealnym prezentem dla starszych dzieci i młodzieży。 Rymowany tekst o uczuciach przybliży pociechom zrozumienie ich własnych ciał i tego， co przeżywają。 Dzięki tej pozycji dowiedzą się， że smutek i złość to normalne， codzienne uczucia， które towarzyszą każdemu z nas a radość nie jest czymś， czego trzeba doświadczać dzień w dzień。 Całkiem niezła， choć jednak czegoś mi w niej zabrakło。

So often when I read books on feelings it includes the main ones like happy， sad， jealous， but I love that this one includes ones like brave， alone， and embarrassed。 It would be a great one to read with an elementary class and then stop and discuss times when you've felt those different emotions。 So often when I read books on feelings it includes the main ones like happy， sad， jealous， but I love that this one includes ones like brave， alone， and embarrassed。 It would be a great one to read with an elementary class and then stop and discuss times when you've felt those different emotions。 。。。more

A good opportunity to discuss feelings with your kids， with some pretty pictures。 Poetry descriptions， so requires some unpacking。

This feels more like illustrated poetry than a traditional picture book。 The artwork compliments each feeling setting extremely well， and I could see this being a great tool for discussion between a caregiver and child。

I liked it much better than the similar Dr。 Seuss book。 It clarified what feelings feel like。。。 instead of just associating them with a color。 Worth remembering。

This book is a great way to show/teach a variety of feelings and how they are not visible on the outside。 I LOVED the cutout of the boy/girl throughout the book。 They stand there very still while experiencing each emotion。 This would work best as a one-on-one story in order to appreciate the unique illustrations。 A word of caution; on the scared emotion page there are some silhouettes of monsters that might be scary to some children。

More for older kids because of higher vocabulary。 Every two pages talk about a specific emotion。 Beautifully done。

The illustrations， although softly colored and textured， fill the pages with emotions。 The young person at the center of all these feelings remains （e）motionless on the final page while each feeling swirls around them。 This sounds cool， but from a practical reading standpoint it didn’t work out so well。 As the reader I had to really work to hold the pages flat over that final page so we could see the person。 The descriptions of each feeling were more poetic and less straightforward。 Beautiful an The illustrations， although softly colored and textured， fill the pages with emotions。 The young person at the center of all these feelings remains （e）motionless on the final page while each feeling swirls around them。 This sounds cool， but from a practical reading standpoint it didn’t work out so well。 As the reader I had to really work to hold the pages flat over that final page so we could see the person。 The descriptions of each feeling were more poetic and less straightforward。 Beautiful and accurate， but definitely more flowery than bald facts。 。。。more
