Amazon.com Review: Jamie Lee Curtis has starred in many movies, but she says that the children's books she has written mean more to her than any of her films. She and artist Laura Cornell have previously collaborated on two bestselling books: Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born and When I Was Little: A Four-Year-Old's Memoir of Her Youth. This time, we follow a little girl with curly red hair through 13 different moods, beginning with silly: 'Today I feel silly. / Mom says it's the heat. I put rouge on the cat / and gloves on my feet.' Of course, silly soon turns to grumpy and mean... to excited... to confused, and so on. Recognizing one's own mood swings is a developmental milestone, one that some adults haven't yet mastered! Cornell's watercolor illustrations--wildly expressive and energetic--effectively capture the volatility of our redheaded star. Whether she is happy or mad or dancing a solo in jazz, she is always 'full of pizzazz,' and this book is, too. A clever mood wheel on the last page allows young readers to change the little girl's expression--both her eyes and mouth. This is silly fun with a smart lesson for children from ages 4 to 8. --Marcie Bovetz Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Grandaughter Loves the book She read it all and was very fasinated with all the pictures to look at on each page. The last page just lite up her face with excitement of having that fun thing to do. Rating: - Feelings are oh-so important Recognizing our feelings and being able to name and claim them is so important to our emotional health. A meaningful book that travels through the variety of feelings a child may encounter in any day - from angry to joyful to confused to lonely to.... A wide range of feelings are included in this charming rhyme. This is a fun book which can start discussions about how we are feeling while emphazing to children that all feelings are valid. Ben Keckler, author of Incredibly Lonely, That's Me Rating: - Might be better for older children, but what 4 yr old has a boyfriend? I bought this book for my 3 year old and after one read I have put it away for a few years. Talk of boyfriends and crushes is something that can wait until she is a bit older. The illustrations are nice and the concept is good, but it is off the mark for the younger ones. Rating: - Children's Book The Grandkids love this book! It's fun toread and they think the pictures are funny. Rating: - Love it! I gave this to my daughter when she turned 5. It is a fun book, but helped my daughter express how she is feeling. There is a face in the back of the book that they can change to show different feelings. I recently bought two more of these books as gifts for little girls turning 5. see more Browse for similar items by category: Ages 9-12 - Children's Books - Subjects - Books - General Ages 9-12 - Children's Books - Subjects - Books - General AAS Issues - Children's Books - Subjects - Books - General Issues - Children's Books - Subjects - Books - General AAS Emotions & Feelings - Social Situations - People & Places - Children's Books - Subjects - Books - Fiction
