I really liked this one! My granddaughter did too... text in rhyme, illustrations funny, and in the back is a face you can change the eyes and mouth to show different silly emotions.

So sweet and hilarious -- the words paired with the illustrations made me smile ear to ear.

I love picking out all the small, hilarious, wacky details in Laura Cornell's illustrations.

And Jamie Lee's words are just right for teaching about emotions and emotional self-acceptance, without going into too much detail, without being preachy, and without being overly mushy. I really think she got it just right.

I adore this book! This illustrations are fun and the story is about a little girl who goes through a variety of emotions during her day. The book gives great examples of why she feels the way she does and sends the message that its ok to have feelings and its normal. The emotions the girls feels and examples given I think are relatable to children.I loved the rhyming as I found it really captivated my attention to see what's going to happen next, but I am a sucker for rhyming books! I'm looking forward to reading more of Jamie Lee Curtis's children's book in the future.

extension- I would make a poster board and title it "How are you Feeling today?" have a variety of faces showing different emotions attatched with velcro and have children state how they are feeling or have felt about a situation and select a face they think would match for said emotion.

This fiction picture book by Jamie Lee Curtis is a wonderful story of a young girl, in I'm assuming second grade and the many moods that she encounters in her daily life. She goes through all of the emotions, like joy when she has a sleepover, or angry when she is feeling left out. She also states that moods are something that happens each day, and "whatever I feel inside is okay!" I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet picture book. It was funny because it is told from a child's perspective. At the back of the book, it includes a mood wheel where you can play with different facial expressions to express your own mood. In my classroom, I would love to use this as a read-aloud and afterward have my students take paper plates and draw the faces of the moods they are feeling that day. Then I would have them write a short poem about why they are feeling that way and share them if they would like! I loved this story, and I am excited that I own it and can use it in the future!

Who knew that Jamie Lee Curtis wrote such fascinating children's books?! You did? Well, I did not know. This is a silly book that introduces social/emotional skills to young children. Children can use this book as a guide to express their feelings such as "I am happy" or "I am sad". Children will be able to better pinpoint their feelings after hearing this book.

This book was another one given to me by my great-aunt and I used to read it so much as a kid. Something I love about this book is that it portrays the character having many different emotions, which is important for kids to learn about at a young age, so that they understand that when they feel a certain way, it can affect their moods as well as the people around them. The illustrations in this book are also very fun and colorful.

My 1st 5 star review of 2021. I loved this story. I saw Jamie Lee Curtis had done this book and I wanted to give it a try and I'm so glad I did. She has this little girl being totally honest about her feelings and how she acts.

Some days the girl is joyful, happy, some sad, and some angry and a raging terror. I have seen both niece and nephew in all these moods before and there may be books that are this honest about what it is to have feelings, but I haven't read them yet.

It's like telling kids they are totally normal for feeling the way they do. It's a powerful story.

The artwork isn't pretty or neat. It's sort of messy, but it's vibrant and full of radiant colors and emotions. You know what the girl is feeling by her face and the colors surrounding her. The artwork moved me. I love it.

I think this book is a gem, over 20 years old now and should not be forgotten. I will try and find more books by the actress. She has a talent for children's stories.

Once I saw who the author was, I immediately got excited. I know Jamie Lee Curtis to be an actress, but never an author, so it was refreshing to read this story. She is pretty funny in some of the movies that I have seen her in, and she adds humor with the way she writes in the story. However, what I enjoyed most of all about this book was the illustrations and the "How do You feel today" revolving facial expressions at the end of the book. It is a great tool to use and even to make for children to associate expressions with the different types of feelings.

This children's book created by the spectacular duo of Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell follows a young girl as she describes her different moods on different days. Written as a rhyming poem, this story uses age-appropriate language to explain what happened to cause the emotion and how that emotion makes her feel. For example, she warns "you better stay clear" because she feels angry that her diverse group of friends left her out one day. Throughout this colorful story, the main character feels many emotions such as joy, confusion, and loneliness which may be difficult for young readers to navigate. I believe this story is written and illustrated in a way that will not only keep the interest of young readers, but also provide them with several opportunities to think/discuss how certain emotions make them feel and ways they might turn negative feelings into more positive ones. The final page of the book also provides an interactive element where you can change the characters eyes and mouth to represent different emotions.

This is a great book for social emotional development. Teachers can use this to teach kids a range of feelings and emotions. Teachers can discuss with the children what do you do when you feel silly.

This is a book that can be used to assist children with describing, expressing and appropriately dealing with their feelings or frustrations. At times it can be difficult for children to express or understand their thoughts or their feeling because they don't know how. Also has an interactive page in the back to change facial expressions according to child's mood.

I like Jamie Lee Curtis's books most of the time. They usually have me giggling by some point. This one did too but I thought it fell flat at the end. I'm probably overthinking this, but I thought it had a poor message: Moods are just something that happen to us (happy, sad, grumpy, worried, excited) and we should just roll with it. They're not something we have any control over.

Bah! That would be a rollercoaster of a life.
