Book Description

Oct 1 2000
There's an abundance of children's vocabulary books offering nouns and action words, but very few providing words for feelings. Janan Cain is the mother of two small children and an artist who has created this winning vocabulary that will help small children find words to express the way they feel. Each of the 14 simple poems is illustrated with delightfully expressive drawings over a two-page spread. The Way I Feel should help reduce the frustration that both parents and children feel when they can't share their hearts.

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

First-time author and artist Cain treads familiar ground here with a picture book that pales in comparison to Jamie Lee Curtis's subtler and snappier Today I Feel Silly. From scared to shy, bored to jealous, Cain covers the emotional waterfront in a series of rhymes paired with pastel pencil drawings featuring elflike children. The opening spread, "silly" ("Silly is the way I feel when I make a funny face/ and wear a goofy, poofy hat that takes up lots of space"), casts a child in a rainbow-colored clown outfit against a sunny yellow backdrop and heralds the book's main artistic conceitAa palette picked to suit each mood. "Bored," for instance, is played out on a background of drab tans and browns, while "angry" steams with fiery reds and purples. Though energetic and bright, the cartoonlike illustrations skate close to being strident, while the verses are pedestrian ("Sometimes I feel so very sad and really don't know why./ Instead of playing and having fun, I cry and cry and cry"). Ages 4-8. (Nov.)

From the Back Cover

"Feelings come and feelings go. I never know what they'll be. Silly or angry, happy or sad–They're all a part of me!" Romp with your child through this delightful word book of feelings. The Way I Feel is a wonderful addition to any child's library of books that explain the world there, as well as the world within.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for 1st graders Jun 24 2004
By CJ
Format:Hardcover
My first grade students love this book! I read this book the first week of school while talking about emotions and how we shared them at school. The art work is fun, colorful and just plain wonderful! My students have loved this book so much that my copy is dog-eared.

5.0 out of 5 stars For toddlers, not for adults Jun 4 2004
Format:Hardcover
This book on feelings is a one in a million. It is attuned with my 3-year old by using age-appropriate language and non-threatening images to represent her feelings. It doesn't overdo it in a way that adults sometimes think is needed to express an emotion, thereby scaring the child off. And it's fun. Right on target.

5.0 out of 5 stars Emotions are Go! May 11 2004
Format:Hardcover
I collect children's books and I usually buy them if they have artwork that I fall in love with. I definitely fell in love with the artwork in this book. It's so vibrant and fun! Then when I read it, I discovered how valuable this book could be for parents and teachers. Children need to learn that it is ok for them to have different emotions, and this book explores plenty of them. I have to admit, the day I bought this book, the "disappointed" page fit me perfectly...the same scenario and all. I just couldn't resist it. It's just a wonderful book!

My son instantly loved the book! He understood most of the adjectives for emotions. "frustrated", "jealous", and "bored" were not as easily understood. Read more

It's a cute book but the pictures seem to be too busy and don't capture my daughter's attention.
