Children’s Book Spotlight
Happy Sad Silly Mad: My World Makes Me Feel by John E. Mitchell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Beautiful-written stories and gorgeous illustrations undoubtedly make for a wonderful children’s book. Happy Sad Silly Mad: My World Makes Me Feel is no exception. My eight-year-old enjoyed this book very much because as she said: She loved the illustrations because they are pretty and they made her feel like she was traveling and reading books.
My daughter’s favorite spread in the book is below.
She lit up when she saw it. It’s probably because she has skin and hair like the little girl on this page. My daughter also liked reading all of the feeling words from being curious about the moon to being embarrassed about burps.
From a mother’s perspective I can say Happy Sad Silly Mad is a joyful, beautiful look into children’s feelings and the activities, journeys, and adventures they enjoy. I recommend reading this story with your children during the day instead of at bedtime and allow them to soak in the bright colors and stellar illustrations. Then reinforce the emotion words the author uses to help increase your child’s vocabulary.
