This is a really nice book on feelings with two-page spreads defining each feelings scene. The simple and sparse illustrations make it clear and easy for young readers to absorb. The short descriptions of each feeling is closed off with a playful rhyme that includes action play with a personal viewpoint children will understand—such as "No matter what you think or say, I want to do it all my way." It's a roller coaster of a read, but feelings are like that.

TIGER DAYS: A BOOK OF FEELINGS
From tiger fierce to snail slow, there are lots of ways to feel and be. A walk through this colorful, rhyming menagerie helps young readers understand their feelings and how those feelings can change from day to day.
Children will recognize their own emotions on these pages—their enthusiasm, stubbornness, excitement, silliness, sadness, and strength. And they’ll come to see that, no matter how they act or feel each day, they’re always still themselves.
PRAISE FOR "TIGER DAYS"
- A highly useful resource for helping little ones build self-awareness and emotional vocabulary. —Kirkus
- Wild and fierce, quiet, shy, or silly: let your emotions run free through this rhythmic, rhyming exploration of the many ways that feelings manifest. A rainbow of bold hues and lively, mobile creatures transform each range of emotions into easily recognizable animal counterparts. Whether they’re full of energy like a rabbit, chatty as a parrot, slow as a snail, or quick to anger like a bull, children will learn to recognize moods in themselves and others. —Foreword Reviews
- In this tender story, Clark compares powerful emotions to animals. Hurley illustrates in a gentle graphic style, rendering even the fiercer animals with an underlying softness. “On turtle days, I’m quiet./ On turtle days, I’m shy,” Clark writes, as a timid turtle shrinks into its bell-shaped shell. But “Bear Days” bring courage and strength: “No matter what the day might bring,/ I think I could do anything” and a purple rhino represents a “stubborn” state of mind. Clark reassures readers that, though their moods change, “I’m still me, I’m always me,/ no matter how I seem.” By observing and recognizing the feelings and related behaviors conveyed, readers may potentially better understand their own. —Publishers Weekly

About the author
A Family Favorite!
This book has been so useful for our kiddos (2 & 6yrs old). It covers a wide range of emotions (sadness, joy, hyper, rage, shy, etc.). The pages are THICK—really high quality, so even our toddler can flip through the pages without us worrying about them tearing. Really cute illustrations. The rhymes are sweet too. But obviously, the best part about this book is it’s helping our kiddos be able to identify their emotions and work through them. All around: I’m really glad we got this book! It’s quickly becoming one of our favorites.
