My 2nd Grade Classroom

I used this book to teach feelings and empathy in my second grade class and it was a smash hit!! The short episodes, some only one frame or page, were perfect for the children to analyze and describe. The illustrations are very clear and the children were able to relate to them perfectly and recognize/empathize with the emotions portrayed. When we were done, all the students were able to not only recognize and explain with words how they were feeling, but relate to others and react appropriately to others in a wider variety of situations. It was a wonderful tool to reinforce cooperation and respect for others, and prevented many an argument and misunderstanding.

Feelings was my favorite book as a child.

My mother brought Feelings home for me when I was really young. I brought the book with me to college. I still read it sometimes when I feel like laughing, crying, screaming...and all the other things this wonderful book makes you do.

Wonderful tool

My husband bought this for our son, who is three. It has been his favorite book for several weeks now. The book is separated into smaller stories and we read one or two at night before going to bed. It's been a wonderful tool to use to help teach our son about his feelings, about others' feelings.

A wonderful book that teaches how to treat others

I received Feelings when I was about five years old. That was twelve years ago and I still read it when I am feeling down and need a boost.
