The Feelings Book
"Sometimes I feel silly ... Sometimes I feel cranky ... Sometimes I feel  like kissing a sea lion." There are so many different ways to feel, and  author-illustrator Todd Parr believes people should not keep their feelings to  themselves: "Share them with someone you love."Big round heads, stick-figure bodies, bold outlines, and vibrant colors mark the  work of the creator of such lovably goofy books asThe Okay BookandZoo Do's and Don'ts.  Straightforward feelings (lonely, scared, brave) are interspersed with less  conventional, but equally valid feelings ("Sometimes I feel like standing on my  head"), encouraging children to identify and label their constantly shifting  emotions. Grownups can validate young readers as they read and chuckle together  and discuss all the feelings they might experience in a given day. Parr's  childlike illustrations are tremendously appealing to one and all. (Ages 3 to 6)--Emilie Coulter--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
