This is a great book to help children express their feelings. I would read this to children ages 3 and up. this book is about a hamster who is sad and start to express herself.

I read this to my child. It was a good introduction to understanding feeling sad and provided good examples of when people can feel sad (rejection, being ignored etc.). One part of me wanted a few more suggestions of what a person can do when they feel sad; however, at the same time I think it was just enough to start a conversation with him. I think it gave just enough ideas to encourage him to brainstorm ideas on his own of what to do when he feels sad.

The book is about a guinea pig who sometimes feels dad. He talks about all the different reasons that make him sad and the ways he uses to make himself feel better. He says nothing seems fun when he feels sad, but sadness goes away from him when he talks about his feeling with someone. When he cries and expresses his emotions, and when he plays with his friends. I like this book because children can learn to label their feelings and use those skills when they feel sad.

I love this book. The pictures are very clear, children can point to the pictures that express how they feel. This is a great book for discussing feelings with your children. Great book for kids who are struggling with their feelings, the book teaches them that it is okay to express their feelings. I would highly recommend this book.

This book is a great children's book because it teaches children that it is okay to be sad and express that emotion. The book gives examples of times you may be sad and lets you know there is a light at the end of the tunnel because sadness does not last forever. The book gives you the correct way to express sadness.

Love the concept but find the suggestions section not very helpful. basically just says that being with someone and crying helps you not be sad, but there is more that can be helpful for toddlers to learn to do when they're sad.

[Jennifer Dixon · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nice book on different feelings but a great self help book for kids when they're feeling a certain way. I would use this book in my quiet corner/ calm down area like a reference book for certain situations.

[Magdalena Chavez · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sadness is an emotion we all face. I like how the book says it's okay to be sad and what they can do to feel better. I especially enjoyed how the book ends. It ends by telling the audience that sadness doesn't last forever.

A book about a hamster explaining all the things that make her feel sad. Eventually, the little hamster talks about what makes her feel happy. It is a great book to read to children to introduce them to emotions and feelings.

[Sarah Limb · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think this book does a great job at showing how to use “I feel,” when you are experiencing big emotions! And then a lovely reminder that those feelings won’t stick around for forever. That it’s good to feel those emotions in the moment but that it’s good to them move forward.

[Kennedy Johnson · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is great at describing when someone is sad. This book would be a great book to read during emotions week. This is a great book for young children.

[Kelly · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book tells of different things that might make us sad, and different things that will help us get over being sad. But what I liked most was the part where we are told that it's okay to be sad.

[Ranette · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mostly a children's book about being sad and how that is normal sometimes.

[Charlotte van Walraven · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very cute, and about an important topic. Bonus points for having the main character be a guinea pig <3

Pitico

[Skyla Austin · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a cute book about expressing your emotions and ways to deal with sadness. It shows its okay to be sad and its okay to cry. The message is great and it has cute pictures to go along with it.

Picture book
I'm still looking for good books for emotional intelligence.
this did a good job explaining that it's okay to feel sad.
I would use this with a whole class or an individual student.

I liked this book by Cornelia Maude Spelman, because it was simple and straightforward and definitely applicable to young kids exploring new feelings and understanding them. The illustrations by Kathy Parkinson were simple and sweet, showing a little hamster feeling sad in different situations and eventually understanding that it is completely okay to feel sad sometimes.

This would be a great read aloud for preschool or kindergarten because this age level is still navigating through their feelings and there will definitely be times in the younger classrooms where they will see their peers feeling sad. This is a very simple book targeted for young ages, and having it in a pre-k classroom would help students feel comfortable with their feelings.

The language in this book is very simple and would be easy for younger kids to understand and follow.

This book is a about a guinea pig who sometimes feels sad. He talks about all the different things that make him feel this way. For example, he talks about when he misses his friends and family, when his friends don't want him to play with him, and when he gets hurt. This book is great for preschool curriculum, because the author provides things that he can do to make him feel better when he is sad. Additionally his feelings are validated, which is extremely important for young children. Teachers could incorporate this book into feelings units, or use this book when children are having tricky times in the classroom. It is important to teach children these feelings, so that they can learn to label them when they feel that way.

[Dolly · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good book for exploring feelings of sadness and how to deal with it. Our girls liked the book, but it wasn't so much of a story as a cute and fuzzy self-help book for kids, just like the book about jealousy that we read by the same author. I thought it was okay. It was too overt about the issue; I think books that are tell a story with the theme woven throughout the tale are more effective.

When I Feel Sad by Corneila Maude Spelman I a great book for young children. This book is about examples of common emotions and ways to handle them positively. I would use this book in my classroom to help my students recognize and regulate their own emotions. I think this book is great for young students because it displays to them that feelings and emotions are natural.

[Stephanie · Rating 1 out of 5]

I am not sure how I feel about this book. I can't decide if they are helpful for kids to be able to express how they are feeling or if the message they are conveying takes precedence over telling a really good story that could have done the same thing.

[Lauren Brown · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book gives examples of times when you might feel sad about something. It is good because it says even though you may feel sad you will not feel sad forever and it will pass. I like it and think that children could relate to it as well.

[Suzanne · Rating 2 out of 5]

I've been collecting all these Cornelia Spelman books about feelings for the library. They are good for guidance class or other classroom discussions with younger students about dealing with feelings appropriately (or even identifying feelings).

[Mary · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great collection to help our little ones communicate their feelings
