From School Library Journal PreS-Gr 1Although this picture book exploration of feelings takes a similar list-and-describe approach to that of Jamie Lee Curtis's Today I Feel Silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day (HarperCollins, 2007) and Dr. Seuss's My Many-Colored Days (Knopf, 1998), don't count that against it. The approach still works, especially when the feelings evoked have such child-friendly imagery ('My heart is yelling, hot and loud,' the child narrator explains). The book pairs brief verbal explorations of emotions with evocative imagery, popping with bright colors against the effectively used white background. Throughout the representative illustrationsa bright yellow star to represent happiness, an elephant to represent sadness, a silhouette of the Big Bad Wolf to represent feara series of heart cutouts, ever decreasing in size, appears on the pages, until the heroine is able to find her feelings everywhere.Kathleen Kelly MacMillan, Carroll County Public Library, MD Read more STARRED REVIEW 'Consider this beautifully designed French import a must-have for any storytime or one-on-one sharing regarding the somewhat sticky subject of feelings.'
