Wanda Controls the Weather: A Rhyming Book about Emotional Development for Kids

By Rachel Foxworth

What if your feelings could change the weather?

Wanda wakes up to the sound of rain-and a mood to match. She doesn't want to get out of bed, and she definitely doesn't want to go to school. But when Wanda makes a small choice to shift her feelings, something magical happens...the clouds part, and the sun begins to shine.

As the day unfolds, Wanda discovers just how powerful her emotions really are. From saving the day when a tornado strikes, to starting a storm, Wanda sees how her feelings affect the world. However, when disappointment rolls in, her own feelings grow too big to handle.

Suddenly, Wanda isn't so sure she can keep everything under control

Will Wanda learn how to navigate her big emotions, or will the storm last forever?

Written by a playwright, poet and a holder of big feelings, this beautiful rhyming story uses imaginative weather metaphors to help children understand and process their feelings in a fun, engaging way.
