Description

An Emotional Menagerie is an imaginative and engaging exploration of childhood emotions through poetry and evocative illustration. Emotions are like no two are quite the same; some are quiet, some are fierce, and all are hard to tame. Children experience a wide range of feelings, often shifting between them before breakfast, and can struggle to put these moods into words. An inability to understand and communicate feelings can lead to frustration and misbehavior. Like adults, children need help recognizing and verbalizing their inner state. The greater the emotional vocabulary, the more likely children are to grow into happy, healthy, and fulfilled adults. An Emotional Menagerie is an emotional glossary for children: 26 rhyming poems, arranged alphabetically, bringing feelings to life—Anger, Boredom, Curiosity, Dreaminess, Embarrassment, Fear, Guilt, and more. The poems transform each emotion into a different animal to provide a clear illustration of how it arises, how it makes us behave, and how we can learn to manage its effects. Boasting a rich vocabulary, the poems also give children a wide variety of options for describing their feelings to others. Filled with wise, musical language and beautiful illustrations, An Emotional Menagerie offers an imaginative and universally appealing way of increasing emotional literacy.
