Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Today I feel silly. Mom says it's the heat.

I put rouge on the cat and gloves on my feet.

I ate noodles for breakfast and pancakes at night.

I dressed like a star and was quite a sight.

Today I am sad, my mood's heavy and gray.

There's a frown on my face and it's been there all day.

My best friend and I had a really big fight.

She said that I tattled and I know that she's right.

Silly, cranky, excited, or sad--everyone has moods that can change each day. Jamie Lee Curtis's zany and touching verse, paired with Laura Cornell's whimsical and original illustrations, helps kids explore, identify, and, even have fun with their ever-changing moods.

Here's another inspired picture book from the bestselling author-illustrator team of Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born and When I Was Little: A Four-Year-Old's Memoir of Her Youth.

Synopsis:

These playful rhymes not only encourage readers to express their feelings--from confused to angry, cranky to great--they also show how to make them fun. The book comes with a "mood wheel"--a die-cut wheel with mix-and-match facial expressions--so children can identify their moods with funny faces.

About the Author

Jamie Lee Curtis loves big words but doesn't know how to spell many of them. She adores her family life, which includes the amazing Annie, the miraculous Tom and the hilarious and loving Christopher. She advocates for children around the world and appreciates her friends, family and colleagues. She lives in stunning and sunny southern California with her rotund dog, Frances.

My daughter received this book as a birthday gift last year, and still requests it for her bedtime story a couple of times a week. It's so much fun to read, and she doesn't even realize she's learning about different moods and feelings. I also love the illustrations, they match the text perfectly.
