This is the third book in the twenty-four-book 'I Feel ... When ...' series that has a plot that moves to a satisfying conclusion, where characters talk about their feelings. They spring from the Emotatude' picture book series that examines how we vibrationally feel inside, and the Emotion Mandala picture book and coloring book. Beginning sight words are used to make this series accessible for early readers. The printed conversation is most often placed nearest the person talking. Reading the printed conversation to find out what the characters say is almost as easy as reading the pictures to find out what they do and how they feel. Thinking about the feelings out of your own personal context is a healthy way to build emotional vocabulary that will be there when you need it.
Now learning to read can be part of thoughtful interpretation of the feelings of others using emotion vocabulary and nonviolent communication, as well as a skill building exercise.

Karen White Porter M.Ed. NBCT is an educator and author of many children's books, the 'I Feel When' series, the 'Emotatude' series and several chapter books. She was inspired to write this book series because she saw firsthand that children need to learn acceptable ways to communicate their feelings about runny noses while teaching. She worked diligently in her classroom to teach children to resolve conflict by honestly expressing their feelings and needs. She even had a peace table in her classroom where children spent time working out their conflicts. When she was teaching children, she felt there were not enough early readers that showed children learn how to cope with their feelings. For this reason, she is trying to provide classrooms with books that help children learn about the feelings they have, and that it is acceptable to express feelings to get needs met. Karen hopes to share these stories with you to shed light on the importance of reaching into our hearts to act with compassion in all we do. She hopes you will read more Emotatude Books to understand your feelings, and more "I Feel When' books to see how five furry friends express them on positive ways. She lives in Newberry. Florida with her husband Jim, daughter Cole, and two pets, Mojo, and Eva Porter.
