Today I feel silly & other MOODS that make my day
by Jamie Lee Curtis
ISBN: 9780060245603
Young children typically have a hard time conveying how they feel when they are frustrated, confused, angry or sad. This is a lively book about our moods and how they can change every day, and how they can prompt especially children to engage in mischievous antics. Written in some zany verse, Jamie Lee Curtis helps kids explore and identify their moods. Reading a book like Today I Feel Silly teaches them that it is okay to feel all those ways, and it begins to teach them how to deal with their emotions.
The text is printed in different directions over the pages, which makes reading it interesting and interactive. The last pages contain two cardboard wheels and openings on the page to allow kids to select the mood they’re in right at the moment. Very cute!
Beautiful, whimsical, full-page illustrations by Laura Cornell wonderfully compliment the text.
Published in 1998, Today I Feel Silly, and Other Moods That Make My Day made the best-seller list in The New York Times.
