A sweet book on learning what emotions are and how to deal with when they get too big, but also how they keep us safe. It a little gimmicky with the squishi which you can buy, but helpful all the same.

Thank you for the ARC. This book did an incredible job describing emotions and showing children they are in charge of those emotions. I loved that each emotion had its own color coordinated to it. The visuals were great and illustrations were on point. This will be a really helpful book as my toddler gets older. He’s already going through many emotions so I can wait to buy this and read it together once he understands more.

This book is both adorable and useful.
I read this with my toddler and she enjoyed reading and talking about it. I really liked that the emotions had their own colors and could see them taking over Dawson’s body and how big emotions look. The visuals made the conversations about big feeling go smoothly. The tips page at the back was helpful too! It’s nice to have reminders because sometimes it’s easy to feel out of control when kids act out from their big emotions.

This book does a really good job of explaining emotions for younger kids. I really like that it not only describes the emotions but also how even an emotion like anger can be a good thing and it provides coping skills for kids.
