It’s rare to find a book that so beautifully supports this aspect of human learning!I’m Happy-Sad Today:Making Sense of Mixed-Together Feelings, is a rare and unique story about how our emotions are often complex. The author, Lory Britain, Ph.D., has created many books revealing her special appreciation for the world of the young child, in support of the adults who guide them through everyday challenges and joys.This newest book, with the rich and playful images of Matthew Rivera, represents diverse children as they learn about their surprising feelings. What a treasure and wonderful springboard for learning in a classroom or household environment. My grandkids keep asking me to read it to them.
