WHAT ARE THE ANIMALS FEELING? What are you feeling? Join in the fun with this fourth book in the Bully-Busting Adventures Series. The "Friends Have Feelings: Activity and Coloring Book" introduces children to Bernie's barnyard buddies as they share their unique emotions and feelings.
THROUGH THE USE OF DELIGHTFUL ILLUSTRATIONS and engaging activities, readers learn fourteen animal names (pig, crow, dog, sheep, cow, hen, cat, horse, donkey, turkey, duck, goat, goose, and rooster). And the animals share eighteen feelings and actions (hello, happy, sick, mad, hungry, sleepy, confused, sad, scared, surprised, silly, hurt, laughing, proud, thinking, loving, caring, and goodbye). Children are encouraged to talk about feelings ("What makes you sad?" or "The turkey feels silly. Can you make a silly face?") with 28 reflective coloring pages to boost communication. This book is intended for families with toddlers and children in primary grade school.

Author Biography

Growing up next to the Illinois cornfields, Jean listened to chirping crickets, chased lightning bugs, and created imaginative stories, songs, and poems. As a teenager, she wrote, "The Pig Who Found Music," a heart-warming story about little Bernie, later entitled "An Oinkrrific Day!" the first in the Bully-Busting Adventure Series. "Friends Have Feelings" continues the story of Bernie the pig and his barnyard friends. Multiple life challenges empowered Jean to become an author, registered music therapist, credentialed teacher, and certified creative and performing arts coach. Today Jean is a Certified Expressive Arts Grief and Trauma Coach and a Certified Art Therapy Practitioner. She helps people discover, identify, and release blocked feelings through the expressive arts (art, music, dramatic arts, public speaking, and creative writing) with her books, group sessions, and private sessions. She is currently authoring her adult book series based on the Podcast "Courageous, Creative Conquerors." It features stories and creative artwork from those who have triumphed over trauma.
