Editorial Review:Product Description:The zany characters who sniffle, soar and shriek through this book will help kids understand the concept of such emotions as joy, disappointment, boredom and anger. 'The Way I Feel' will also show kids how to express their feelings with words.
This delightful book is used in homes, classrooms, literacy programs and pediatric clinics across the country. 'Finally we have a resource which teaches children how to articulate what they feel,' wrote a health educator.
The imaginative illustrations and superbly crafted verses are sensitive and free of bias and slang.

The Way I Feel
I discovered this book when I read it to the children of my grandsons' preschool. Every child was fascinated.
As an adult, I might not have been overly impressed, but the important impression is the one it makes on kids. The words and the art in this book give kids permission to feel their feelings - not to act on them, but to feel. I ordered several as gifts for children in my life.

Do you feel like I do?
I got this book on recommendation from my son's Occupational Therapist. He has Sensory Integration Disorder and doesn't understand alot of his feelings. So with this book and therapy and just being an understanding mom it is really helping.
The book itself is very colorful and the pictures are quite entertaining. With my younger son we just talk about the feeling and help put a look to the emotion.

Really helps young children express feelings
The book age on Amazon says 4-8, but my husband and I read this book to our 3-year-old and have done since she was 2. She loves the drawings and as another reviewer said, the pictures illustrate the feelings really well. Since we've been reading this book, she's started telling us when she's happy, excited, or angry. The expression of the third one (and sometimes the second one) helps diffuse tantrums before they get out of hand. I think this would have been a bigger challenge without this book.

Wonderful book, the photos really help
I got this book to start teaching my 3 year old son about emotions, besides just happy and sad. I was really impressed by how much it has helped him. I think that the photos really help him understand what the feelings are, and then when I see him having that feeling later, I help him name it. Sometimes we go back and look at the book too. He loves it.
