This is a great book for toddlers who are feeling their feelings! My son loves this book so much that we read it every night before bed. It loves identifying colors and all of the objects throughout the book. It definitely helps him with associating various feelings to different things

This is a good book if your trying toTeach your kids about emotions. Different colors have a feeling makes it fun for the children to learn about colors and emotions at the same time.

Excellent book for helping kids learn emotions and how to talk about them

This book has been a great way for our 4 year old to identify what 'color' he is emotionally. I've got my own adult criticisms of the book (like the color of the little girl - she's the same color as the 'fear' emotion what's that about(?), a couple of her responses to the monster, that they don't identify the fear color by name like they do all the others) BUT its not about what *I* like or how *I* view the book, its about what my kiddo thinks and how useful he finds it. Its been great for him and he wants to read it every night so for me that's a win!

I got this for my three year old and she loves it ! It became one of her favorite books and in our daily rotation. She always wants to read it and flips through it herself. It does a good job at showing each emotion and how it can make you feel and uses good vibrant colors on each page to help keep their minds interested.
