Synopsis

"This sensitive book . . . encourages young ones to open up and discuss how they feel, even when their thoughts are confusing." -Parents

We teach toddlers to identify colors, numbers, shapes, and letters-but what about their feelings? By illustrating such common emotions as happiness, sadness, anger, fear, and calm, this sensitive book gently encourages young children to open up with parents, teachers, and daycare providers. And kids will LOVE the bright illustrations and amazing 3-D pop-ups on every page!

Review

PreS-K-Employing a rainbow of tones, a young girl tries to help her multihued friend understand why he is "feeling all mixed up." The unnamed child distinguishes five emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, fear, and calm) and articulates what each one might feel like by equating it with a color. A smiling golden monster on a spread featuring yellow leaves and cutouts represents happiness, describing it as "yellow like the sun." The text explains, "When you're happy you laugh, jump, dance and play. You want to share that feeling with everyone." Conversely, when blue, "you're sad you might want to cry or be alone." Most dramatically, a red monster jumps off the page and declares, "When you're angry, you want to stomp and roar and shout, 'It's not fair!'" Emotions are described in age-appropriate terms, and although calm is a bit tricky ("you breathe slowing and deeply. You feel at peace."), there's no question what the fellow bathed in green is feeling as he rests in a hammock, eyes closed with a smile on his face. A final emotion is left unnamed for readers or listeners to identify, but pink hearts give it away. A number of books, such as Molly Bang's When Sophie Gets Angry-Really, Really Angry (Scholastic, 2004), explore how a child deals with a particular emotion; Color Monster considers the range of feelings a child can experience. As with most pop-ups, durability is a question. VERDICT Less a story than a vehicle to initiate a reassuring conversation about emotions and how to identify them.-Daryl Grabarek, School Library Journal"A number of books . . . explore how a child deals with a particular emotion; Color Monster considers the range of feelings a child can experience. . . a vehicle to initiate a reassuring conversation about emotions and how to identify them." -School Library Journal online

La joya interior / The Jewel inside Us All

El nuevo álbum ilustrado de Anna Llenas, autora del bestseller infantil El monstruo de colores. Todos nacemos con una joya en nuestro interior. Es nuestro ser, nuestro verdadero yo, nuestra esencia, lo más preciado que tenemos. Pero a medida que vamos creciendo, el mundo nos anima a mirar hacia afuera y no hacia dentro, hacia nuestras necesidades, emociones y sentimientos... Y así es como nos vamos desconectando. Podemos pasarnos la vida entera buscando eso que un día tuvimos y perdimos. Podemos emprender el camino de la consciencia, del crecimiento personal, donde la motivación será encontrar nuestras respuestas dentro de nosotros mismos, más que cogerlas desde afuera. Si cuidamos y cultivamos nuestra esencia, podremos recuperar nuestro valor y autoestima perdidos y, ante los giros y los golpes que nos dé la vida, ya nunca estaremos solos, porque por fin nos tendremos a nosotros mismos. Un libro maravilloso que gustará por igual a grandes y pequeños. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A new picture book by Anna Llenas, author of the children's bestseller The Color Monster. We are all born with a jewel inside of us. It is our being, our true self, our essence, the most precious thing we have. But as we grow, the world encourages us to look to the outside and not within, towards our needs, emotions, and feelings ... And this is how the disconnect happens. We can spend our entire lives looking for what we once had and lost. We can embark on the path of consciousness, of personal growth, where our motivation will be to find the answers within ourselves, rather than take them from the outside. If we take care of and nurture our essence, we can regain the strength and self-esteem we once lost and, faced with the twists and turns that life gives us, we will never feel alone, because we will have ourselves. A wonderful book that will appeal both to young and old readers alike.

But as we grow, the world encourages us to look to the outside and not within, towards our needs, emotions, and feelings ... And this is how the disconnect happens. We can spend our entire lives looking for what we once had and lost."
