hard time showing or expressing their feeling to other people and this book is great example to show children that.
Classroom Ideas:
1. I would use this book at the beginning of the year in an All About Me section. Introducing feelings and how to react to things.
2. I could extend on this book and have my class write a story of what their week was like and how they felt on each day with each situation.
