| EMOTIONS | FACIAL EXPRESSION | SENSESSummary: "Before children can effectively deal with their emotions, they need to understand and be able to accurately label those emotions. Joseph and Silvana Karim have created a visually appealing book with relevant and engaging illustrations. The book uses color and experiential metaphors to creatively help children understand five basic emotions. With the added activities in the back of the book, this is a must-have resource for parents and educators working with young children." - BOOK JACKETReview: This delightful picture book uses colour and comparisons to help young children recognize and understand something of emotions. So afraid is dark like night and angry is hot and bright red, while happy is sunny yellow.
Each short statement is accompanied by a colourful image that will help develop a discussion between the child and whoever is sharing the book with them.
The authors’ intent is to allow children to think visually and overcome any difficulties in expressing what they mean.
At the end there are some exercises to further develop the overall concept.
This is a useful resource for family sharing time, particularly in support of resolving emotional misunderstandings.
