Description

Hoffman, Mary; The book opens with the question: 'How are you feeling today?' And this leads on to a spread by spread presentation of a wide range of feelings, including: Happy, Sad, Excited, Bored, Interested, Angry, Upset, Calm, Silly, Lonely, Scared, Safe, Embarrassed, Shy, Confident, Worried, Jealous, and Satisfied. The final spread is about Feeling Better because sharing and talking about feelings helps us to feel better. The approach and design follows The Great Big Book of Families, with lots of different children in lots of different situations, brief text captions and questions, and plenty of humor to make sure the book is fun. Mary Hoffman and Ros Asquith look at feelings in family life, at school, and everywhere with the same warmth, wit and sensitivity that they brought to their award-winning The Great Big Book of Families.
