I loved the ABC book. I’ve written more than 22 children’s books and many with tough social and personal issues children can have due to outside forces. Their focus encompasses feelings and emotions, but not like this book. First, there is a parent section in the beginning that aids parents, educators, preschool teachers, and others, a refreshing reminder about differentiating between one versus another. The letter pages contain a sentence about how a child might be feeling in the moment. This validates the child’s feelings. Below, one finds a different way to rephrase that feeling in a positive manner easily understood by children. That makes this book stand out! Ten, okay, five shiny gold stars.
