    It's great because the colors help me understand the feelings. I like that she makes things for her family. (Says my daughter)

    Our four year old autistic nephew loves this book!

    I received this book free in pdf format as a library thing giveaway.
    I recommend it as a cute visual representation of feelings with which a child can identify. The illustrations are childlike, wispy & colorful.
    Great way to help a girl understand & identify her feelings.

    My four-year-old liked this one. The simple, hand drawn pictures were cute and kept her attention. The message of love of family was well-done without being overly preachy. There were some editing issues that were pretty noticeable in a book this short.
    Overall, enjoyable story with bright, colorful pictures young children can enjoy. Fix those errors, though, so young children won't be confused!

    I think this is a wonderful book for children and could be used up through first or even second grade to help children see that emotions are not a bad thing and we all experience them. I love that it also tell how she changes how she feels which helps to give children options that they can use to help defuse a situation or calm themselves when angry. I recommend this book both from a parent and teachers perspective. I like the simplicity of the art work as many children's books are over worked and make it hard for smaller children to relate to the illustrations. The illustration are simple which enriches the story.

    I think the issue for the other reviewer about his and her come may from the translation to English.

    The premise of this short story is fine but there are some problems with "his" and "her" which made it less appealing to me.

    I liked the fact that when Paula talked with others about her feelings that they listened. And, then they made her bad feelings disappear.

    Story:

    I really like the concept behind this book. It's quite clever and fun. It just seems like it was written by a non-native English speaker. There are random tense changes throughout, and the grammar is awkward (e.g. "Sometimes, there are many things that make her feel sad"). I find it hard to recommend a book like this at all because it's vital that young readers learn correct grammar, sentence structure, etc.

    Illustrations:

    I'm not sure why two different styles are included in this book. The actual illustrations are fantastic. They're very simple, but they are quirky and interesting. There's a lot of fun texture and color included in each image.

    Oddly enough, though, there's random clip art (I think) included on each text page. I assume this was done to add more visual interest to the pages without art--but I think this detracts from the book. The clip art has nothing to do with the story, so it's just confusing. Of course, the wildly different style doesn't help tie it in at all.

    Cover:

    Again, odd discrepancy between the artwork inside and the artwork on the cover. Why two different styles?
