The Great Emotion Commotion

By Kirsti Call and Kim Chaffee

This mixed-feelings book uses humor to teach kids that you can have more than one emotion at the same time.

Have you ever felt happy AND sad? Excited AND scared? It's like a game of tug-of-war between a colossal kangaroo and a runaway train. Or juggling hedgehogs over shark-infested waters. Feeling more than one emotion at a time is confusing and sometimes feels catastrophic--an emotion commotion!

An important step in building emotional regulation skills is understanding that you can feel more than one thing at once. This hilarious read-aloud allows parents, teachers, and caregivers to plant this important concept in a fun, kid-friendly way. The big feelings and outlandish animal examples in this book will have readers giggling while they think about their own mixed emotions.

Written by the cohosts of the Picture Book Look podcast and illustrated by Tommy Doyle, The Great Emotion Commotion is a whole lot of chaotic fun.
