Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2021
This simple picture book filled with emojis is meant to help a younger child understand and better manage her or his emotions. The author describes different emotions in plain terms, including both what we perceive as negative as well as positive ones, and provides ideas about what to do if the child feels these emotions. He even broaches the concept that emotions are complex, and you may feel more than one at a time. I liked how the book offered suggestions about what to do when you feel a particular emotion but also encourage the child to come up with ideas for what to do themselves like, say, to think about ways to calm themselves they already know work for them. The illustrations are emoji based with a yellow background, making the pages bright and colorful, filled with those simple illustrations that most know and use every day. The book would be visually appealing to a younger child. If your child is having trouble with managing his or her emotions, this book could not only provide a gateway to a discussion about that but could also provide some concrete ideas about how to manage them.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.
