Your feelings are important

And they change every day.

You feel emotions all the time,

And your emotions are okay!

In this emotions book for kids, a young boy goes through his day and feels a lot of feelings, from worried to excited, frustrated to silly. Rather than push his emotions away, his mom encourages him to feel what he's feeling . . . and then helps him move on with his day!

With vibrant illustrations and singsong language designed to be a repetitive book for toddlers and early readers, What I'm Feeling Is Okay! is a great first book about feelings.

This book is the perfect social emotional learning resource for teachers, preschool curriculum, or to supplement distance-learning. As a bonus, it also includes six fun activities for exploring emotions with the little ones in your life!

Laura Shiff is an author and elementary school teacher living in Minneapolis. Through her years working with children and raising her own two sons, she knows how crucial it is to talk about feelings early and often. It's time to normalize all emotions!

Bev Johnson is an illustrator and character designer living in California. She loves reading, music, and cats. Drawing makes her the happiest, and feeling happy is okay.
