What's Inside
As you read this book aloud to a group, children talk about feelings and notice how many different feelings a person can have. The opening line, "I have many feelings as you will discover," sets up a simple read-aloud about emotions.
Use it during circle time or a small-group lesson to name feelings, build oral language, and practice listening for meaning. It fits well with early lessons on emotions and beginning reading.
Children who are learning basic feeling words will have a clear, short text to hear and discuss.
