My Many Colored Days Board book – Picture Book, September 8, 1998

I got this book when my daughter was nine years old and today she is now director of a children’s center and they have it for their children there. It’s a really awesome book and describes the many different moods Children may have. This explains it in a wonderful way that a child can understand. It was one of Dr. Seuss last books. He did not do the illustration, but he is the writer you won’t be sorry.

I gave this book to my 2-year-old nephew, not only because it's colorful and can show him the moods of everyday life, but because he likes books A LOT! I believe he will understand the book one day. Thank you so much!

I love to give this book away as a gift. A great way to read about varying emotions with little ones, all of which are normal. Written well with awesome artwork!

I read this book to my kids and it’s always my go to gift book for baby showers. It is so fun to read with emotional voice animation and really helps young kids better understand their emotions.

Great book for associating color with moods. This book is not well-known but it's a great find for teaching which colors represent which feelings. Art teachers can use this to draw connections to color and mood in the study of art.The Core Knowledge schools and teachers can use this book in their study of art.Excellent for preschoolers but also you can use this with older children if you are teaching this subject.In the early months of early childhood, we discuss our feelings, this resource can be used to enable children to see the connection between colors and feelings and then the teacher can expand by having the children choose the color that matches their feeling.Poor Little Pencil: A Happy How-to-Hold the Pencil Book (Rhyming Picture book, Toddlers, Preschool, Kindergarten, Pencil grips, Teaching Pencil Grip, Ages 3-6, Handwriting, OT 1)

I bought this book to help my 4-year-old get some ideas for his daily journal we are just beginning to start. It has done a wonderful job allowing him to express himself using color instead of words since he’s only beginning to learn how to write. It’s short and simple and a new favorite.

I know, I know - you're going "Isn't Seuss already for little kids?" A lot of people think that - that's why they get Green Eggs and Ham for their two year olds.Unfortunately for them, most of the Seuss canon is for early readers, or even older. These books are too long for babies and toddlers to sit through, and some of them are even a little frightening for more sensitive children (I'm continually perturbed by my five-year-old niece's terror of Horton Hears a Who, but she doesn't like the bullying that goes on there. It's a wonderful book, just not for her).This book, by contrast, was clearly written with little-little ones in mind. There's a line or two on every page, and most pages are two-page spreads.Seuss didn't do the illustrations, but I think that they do justice to his work anyway.Some people are concerned about the color symbolism. (I'm wondering why they pick on the negative connotations of brown and black, but not the connotations of yellow (asian?) and purple (gay?), but that's beside the point.) I don't see this as a problem, especially when each color is illustrated with a different animal in that color, and neither does the (black) father of my two nieces.But if it is a concern for you, by all means check the book out of the library before purchasing it.Incidentally, the board book is very sturdily constructed. Not all board books are, but this one has very thick pages, very secure binding - always a good thing :)

One of my all time favorite childrens books about emotions. The illustrations are awesome and the ending reminds us all that its ok to feel. I use it all the time in therapy with kids. Plus I have gifted many copies to friends with new babies.
