thank you netgalley for providing me this arc in exchange for an honest review :)

I was in need of a book that would be an easy read and relaxing to flip through and when I saw this title I knew it was the one. Oziewicz and Zajac did an amazing job illustrating what feelings actually do. Feelings are something we all experience. And feelings impact our outlook on life, our choices and our actions. We can make better decisions once we understand how the choices we are given make us feel.

Feelings are emotions we should listen to and understand. This book helps in bettering our understanding of feelings. Plus, the added illustrations really help in visually seeing what our feelings are doing to us; because, we get to see what they actually do! It was really helpful.

This was also a teachable moment for me even though I'm not a child, this is a book I would recommend for everyone to pick up; because we still need the reminders of how important our feelings are. It was eye-opening and enlightening see how certain negative feelings can negatively impact our success and how certain positive feelings can do the opposite.

I know it is easier said than done, but try not to compare yourself to others and to hate because those feelings will just inhabit your potential, darken your accomplishments and destroy connections with others. Try to express kindness, gratitude and patience because those feelings will help you improve your future and provide you with positivity in the present and future!

Thank you for this arc! 5/5 stars Amazing illustrations

I liked this book and I loved the examples that they used to describe feelings. I do think that in the American market, fickle that we are, some of the pictures will not go over well with adults. I will recommend this book to my case worker to place in the Foster Parent Library as I do think this is a great book to help with children's feelings.

This is a very sweet book for children about all the emotions that a person feels and how each of them are different and react differently to things.

It’s very sweet and very easy for children to understand.

I thought this book was adorable, it talks about all of the emotions and personifies them. The illustrations were beautiful. Only 4 stars because my 5 year old said she didn't like it that much.

The art style is delightful! All of the emotions are characterised in such a cute way, I can’t even choose a favourite. I think this would be a lovely read to help a younger child understand their emotions and the different words for their feelings. Whilst there are not many words, the illustrations say plenty!

A beautiful book to help children understand the importance of different feelings. I love how the feelings are given actions.

A charming book with the most endearing illustrations and explanations or descriptions of the myriad of emotions that reside within us. Children and adults alike will love this relatable book.

'What Feelings Do When No One Is Looking' by Tina Oziewicz is an incredible book for children to understand the most basic human emotions. The illustration is impeccable and goes very well with the text. Each line used to describe each emotion is written in a simple yet poetic way that puts across the thoughts very clearly.

What Feelings Do When No One's Looking is a little book filled with big feelings. Through whimsical illustration and thoughtful prose you will become acquainted with a handful of emotions and the different ways they can manifest. This story is masterful in the sense it can be as deep as you need it to be. It is one you can return to again and again, each time gleaning different lessons from its pages.

Beautiful and thought provoking this book will be beloved by adults and children alike!

A thoughtful book with beautiful illustrations in the most pleasing cool colour palette. It will be a great way to start many mindful conversations with the little ones and will certainly make for a lovely gift. Being neurodivergent myself, I feel like there is something inherently calm and soothing about this little book which makes me think it would be appropriate for little neurodivergent readers.

A magical wee book!

What Feelings Do When No One's Looking was a really lovely book about feelings being like creatures, who pursue their own adventures consistent with their descriptions. The illustrations reminded me of Where the Wild Things Are. Beautiful!

Oh such a little short book with big messages. It is fun way to teach kids about recognizes various of feelings. Each illustrations give beautiful vibes. I hope more interaction between each this feeling characters and make small plot.

Thanks Netgalley to providing me with such charming book.

Wonderful picture book with awesome illustrations. I love a good with monsters and inner emotions. What I love the most about this one is that it doesn't focus only on positive feelings or negative ones. There is a good balance and they are all whimsical. For example: "Insecurities build cages." and "Trust builds bridges." ... Right?
Right to the point.

Read it once and look at the fun illustrations. Then read it again and think about each one. It started many deep conversations in this house. A really good conversation starter to read with both children and teens.
