A week ago, one of my lovely blog readers reached out to me and asked me to read and review a book she had written on teaching kids how to understand and talk about their feelings. I liked it so much I offered to do a giveaway of the book on my blog! Just in case you were wondering, I was not paid to read the book, write the review, or host a giveaway.

Yell and Shout, Cry and Pout

I am pleased to share with you Yell and Shout, Cry and Pout: A Kid’s Guide to Feelings by Peggy Kruger Tietz. It is written in a simple, easy-to-read format with illustrations and stories for you to talk through with your child.

It covers eight major emotions, offering short vignettes, examples, and simple discussion points that make for straightforward and effective lessons.
