Glad Monster, Sad Monster
A Book About Feelings
by Ed Emberley and Anne Miranda
From cover to cover, Glad Monster, Sad Monster captivates the young mind with fun and fanciful images of
monsters who don't mind sharing their feelings. Ed Emberley and Anne Miranda do an amazing job of capturing monsters
acting the very same way children do. With each new page comes a new emotion to be explored, discussed and (literally)
tried on. The book ingeniously includes seven removable masks to match each feeling featured. By using the book and
accompanying masks to create a dialogue, children have the opportunity to work through issues that may be tough for
them to verbalize otherwise. Parents, teachers and counselors can benefit from having Glad Monster, Sad Monster
on hand when there are difficult situations. However, the book is also just plain fun for kids who enjoy pretending
and taking on different roles. Moreover, kids who love Emberley's Go Away, Big Green Monster! are sure to
add Glad Monster, Sad Monster to their list of favorites! |
