Description
Opposite the simple declarative sentence, "Walter was worried" is a portrait of a very worried Walter. But wait! The letters that spell out his feelings form his facial characteristics, as well as his expression. Gradually a simple story unfolds: the sky grows dark, the fog rolls in, lightning lights the sky, and thunder shakes the trees; Priscilla was puzzled, Shirley was shocked, Frederick was frightened... and eventually (when the sun came out) Henry was hopeful, and Elliot ecstatic.This title has Common Core connections.

This book addresses emotions and the alphabet. An odd combo, but well received by my 2.5 year old. The emotion words use unique fonts that are repeated in the face illustration. That makes it easy to point out a letter and ask my daughter to find one just like it on the face-- a great way to introduce letters. The text is simple, and therefore, inviting to young ones. It enables some basic discussion on emotions, which is beneficial to this age group's development of self-expression. This author is awesome!
