Today I Feel Silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day

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.

Aweful

I was very disappointed with this children's book. I agree with the reviews of the rhymes being disjointed and forced. Furthermore, the text is sometimes almost illegible when it is mixed within the illustrations. My child and I were given this book for free most likely because of the author. I...

Great book

This book was a joy to read to my son, who sometimes has a bad day. This book was fun, with it's colorful pages, and the fun way that the book explains that having different emotions is OK. Great buy!!

LOVE this book for toddlers

Today I Feel Silly and Big Words for Little People - both by Jamie Lee Curtis are our favorite bedtime stories. I Feel Silly is visually interesting, fun to read and teach about emotions in a fun way. Basically, it's ok to feel how you are feeling which I think is a great message.

Today I Feel Silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day

This was an adorable book that speaks to all people old or young. As a Preschool teacher this addresses all of our childhood issues that we weren't able to express. It expresses to children that it is ok to feel sad, happy, silly, scared, etc. and express and feel their own emotions.

Might be better for older children, but what 4 yr old has a boyfriend?

I bought this book for my 3 year old and after one read I have put it away for a few years. Talk of boyfriends and crushes is something that can wait until she is a bit older. The illustrations are nice and the concept is good, but it is off the mark for the younger ones.
