Children experience complex emotions just like adults.

Helping children identify and express their feelings in a positive manner is important for their social-emotional learning, developing empathy, and building resilience. Feelings are neither good nor bad, they simply are. Kids need words to name their feelings, just as they need words to name all things in their world.

Building on the phenomenal success of author and illustrator Janan Cain's original title, The Way I Feel Too features more feelings with the same strong, colorful, and expressive images and simple verses to help children connect the word and the emotion. Children learn useful words, giving parents, teachers, and caregivers many chances to open conversations about what’s going on in their child’s life.

Recommended by parents, teachers, and mental health professionals, The Way I Feel Too is a valuable addition to anyone's library.
