Helping children identify and express their feelings in a positive manner is important for their social-emotional learning， developing empathy， and building resilience。 Feelings are neither good nor bad， they simply are。 Kids need words to name their feelings， just as they need words to name all things in their world。

The Way I Feel uses strong， colorful， and expressive images which go along with simple verses to help children connect the word and the emotion。 Children will learn useful words giving parents， teachers， and caregivers many chances to open conversations about what’s going on in their child’s life。

The Way I Feel is a very colorful book written for children to help them understand their feeling。 It should read to children at a very early age。

Genre: NonfictionAges: 3-9I believe this book is a good book to introduce feeling and emotions to children。 It does a good job at teaching children that all emotions and feeling are acceptable and ok。 It uses bold， colorful illustrations to depict the emotions and it does a very good job at doing so。

This book doesn't really tell a story， but it goes through a lot of words expressing emotions that children might feel。 Each page showcases a different emotion。 For example， a girl says that she's disappointed when her friends can't play with her。 She says she feels shy when she sees a stranger。 The illustrations are colorful and cute， and the children's facial expressions match the emotions。 This book would be useful when doing a "feelings" theme， but it doesn't have the impact of a well-writte This book doesn't really tell a story， but it goes through a lot of words expressing emotions that children might feel。 Each page showcases a different emotion。 For example， a girl says that she's disappointed when her friends can't play with her。 She says she feels shy when she sees a stranger。 The illustrations are colorful and cute， and the children's facial expressions match the emotions。 This book would be useful when doing a "feelings" theme， but it doesn't have the impact of a well-written story。 It goes along with the idea that children need to use words and it gives them words for different situations。 This book could lead to discussions about what makes children feel angry， happy， frustrated， silly， etc。 。。。more

Grade Level: K-2Genre: Contemporary Realistic This book was adorable and silly。 I loved the simple wording used and how the words were written in different patterns。 I loved how this book talked about all the emotions someone could feel。

The Way I Feel is a wonderful book that incorporates different aspects of poetry to discuss all of the many feelings we have。 This book is a fantastic resource for helping kids understand their own feelings as well as the feelings of those around them。 We can learn about a variety of feelings and emotions throughout the book， including silly， scared， disappointed， happy， sad， angry， thankful， frustrated， shy， bored， excited， jealous， and proud。 The illustrations in the book help to identify what The Way I Feel is a wonderful book that incorporates different aspects of poetry to discuss all of the many feelings we have。 This book is a fantastic resource for helping kids understand their own feelings as well as the feelings of those around them。 We can learn about a variety of feelings and emotions throughout the book， including silly， scared， disappointed， happy， sad， angry， thankful， frustrated， shy， bored， excited， jealous， and proud。 The illustrations in the book help to identify what each feeling may look like and helps us put specific words to those feelings。 My favorite part of the book was near the end， because it explained how feelings come and go， and how they are all a part of who we are。 I believe that this is an extremely important message for younger children to hear because emotions can be very overwhelming and confusing for them but understanding that everyone has feelings and that it is normal for us to experience a variety of emotions can definitely help them when experiencing these types of feelings。 Overall， I really enjoyed this book and wish I could have read it as a child because I believe dealing with emotions as a kid can be quite challenging at times， but this book helps to explain those emotions in a way that is both entertaining and understandable。I believe this picture book would be helpful and beneficial to students in the lower elementary grades。 I would highly recommend reading this book to a kindergarten class， perhaps at the start of the school year， because kindergarten is a big step for kids， and it comes with a lot of emotions that they may need help dealing with。 I think this would be a wonderful book to read aloud to the class， and if you are using it in a first or second grade class you could even have them read the book out loud with you。 This book encourages students to make connections with the emotions and feelings described in the text， which is beneficial to them because it enhances their engagement and interest in the story。 This， I believe， provides students with several opportunities to have important discussions about their own emotions and experiences。 I believe it would be beneficial for students to be able to share some of their personal experiences and feelings related to the book by either drawing about them or sharing them with the class if they feel comfortable doing so。 I'd like to use this book in my future classes， especially when teaching students about the various aspects of poetry。 Rhyme is used a lot throughout the text， and I think it would be fun to first introduce what rhyme and rhyming words are to students and then when reading the book， you can allow students to try and point out the different words that rhyme。 。。。more

This is a helpful book for parents， teachers， and other caregivers to read with children。 It shows young children how different emotions may look and feel and does not pass judgment on them。The rhyming narrative and colorful， cartoonish illustrations complement each other nicely。 This book is appropriate and helpful for reading with young children， especially if they are having a hard time expressing and understanding their feelings。

"They Way I Feel" written and illustrated by author Janan Cain is a great book to introduce poetry to younger students。 This book encompasses a child who shares all of her emotions and how they make her feel。 The book lets readers know it is okay to have emotions and that they are valid。 At the end of this book， it also gives advice to parents of confronting their children with their different emotions。 As a future educator， this would be a good book to have on hand for books that parents can us "They Way I Feel" written and illustrated by author Janan Cain is a great book to introduce poetry to younger students。 This book encompasses a child who shares all of her emotions and how they make her feel。 The book lets readers know it is okay to have emotions and that they are valid。 At the end of this book， it also gives advice to parents of confronting their children with their different emotions。 As a future educator， this would be a good book to have on hand for books that parents can use as a tool to help their child。 I would recommend this book for grades K-3。 It has great illustrations while having a whimsical flow within the text。 With that， these students in these grades are likely to be really receptive while reading it alone， or as a read-aloud。 The book allows students to see the different words that describe their emotions。 There's a great quote on the back of the books cover， it states "Feelings come and feelings fo。 I never know what they'll be。 Silly， or angry， happy or sad- They're all apart of me！" Telling students that their emotions matter and they can express them is very important， especially to young learners， but also give them tools on how to express their emotions in an effective and productive way。 I would include this into classroom instruction when learning different about different types of figurative language as the text is very whimsical and includes different types of figurative language， especially mood and tone。 。。。more

Text to self connection Growing up this peace of literature would have been extremely helpful dealing with big emotions！ As young children we have big emotions just as adults 。 As children we do not have all the tools set fourth to handle them。 In the text is share why they say these emotions and showing several other people having these emotions。 It’s a great book to help introduce social and emotional skills for students！

A thoughtful book that helps children identify the words that adequately express their different emotions。 Each emotion is shown through a rhyme and complementary illustration。My daughter brought it to my attention and we both really enjoyed it！

This book is great for talking about and learning how to identify feelings， particularly with young children in kinder and first grade。 There are great illustrations attached to represent the different emotions and I love that the colors used on each page contribute to that feeling as well。 This would also be a great text to talk about rhyming as there are short 1-2 sentence phrases that make it easy to pull those rhyming words out for young children。 There is also additional vocabulary that can This book is great for talking about and learning how to identify feelings， particularly with young children in kinder and first grade。 There are great illustrations attached to represent the different emotions and I love that the colors used on each page contribute to that feeling as well。 This would also be a great text to talk about rhyming as there are short 1-2 sentence phrases that make it easy to pull those rhyming words out for young children。 There is also additional vocabulary that can be discussed and you can use this is as a starting point for an SEL lesson and have students brainstorm other emotions they may feel。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this book， as it was recommended for the primary grades。 I teach kindergarten and can defiantly see using this book in my classroom。 It teaches rhyming， feelings， onomatopoeias， and strong vocabulary words for children。 Children can make connections to the text to their own feelings as well as notice how the pictures/illustrations should match the words of a book。 This book has many great teaching point and would be great for kinders。

This book goes through all the different feelings us humans have。 This book is great for younger children because it teaches them about emotions and feelings we have。 The expressions and colors on the book and characters really help describe the way the person is feeling that is expressing the emotion。 Children who read this book will learn useful words and help them connect to their emotions。

This would be a good book to read to kids to introduce and distinguish emotions。 The format of each page is very unique and would engage kids。 That would also help students remember the emotions with how the words on the page are formatted。
