Peek-A-Mood - by Giuliano Ferri (Board Book)

About the Book

Sometimes monkeys feel happy. Sometimes they feel sad. And sometimes they feel positively silly! Take a peek under the shaped flaps to reveal what each one is feeling. Then you can show everyone how you feel! This peekaboo book is a fun way to explore our many emotions.

Book Synopsis

Guess how I'm feeling? A peekaboo book and a primer on empathy, PEEK-A-MOOD invites children to open the flaps and explore our many emotions.

Sometimes you may feel happy. Sometimes you may feel sad -- or angry, or scared, or silly. Whatever your mood, your face will show it. This clever board book uses shaped flaps to help children guess what each animal is feeling before revealing the answers. A final mirror spread allows them to show off how they feel, too.
