Lovely idea for a book and the characters are so cute. I personally wouldn’t label any of the emotions positive because it infers that other emotions are negative, when all feelings are normal. That being said, I loved that it also had questions so you could engage with your child and actions at the back for helping with big feelings.

What a fun book!

I read this with my toddler who loved the bright colours and cute pictures, I can see us using this as a helpful little tool in aiding him expressing himself. highly recommend to parents of young children, especially if they're having trouble expressing and conveying their mood.

Plus the illustrations are delightful!

What a lovely colourful book that is easy to read and to follow. The clear descriptions of what the emotions are and how it makes a person feel was well described and the idea of giving ways to help with the emotions felt very rewarding and I feel could be given to many adults as well as children.
To help younger children to read themselves it would be good to use rhyming language as others have suggested but I think that this is a book that parents can sit with their child and talk to them about these emotions and rhyming language would not necessarily benefit the personal touch of cuddling with a parent.
The descriptions are warm and cosy which gives security to a child.
I have since shared this book with my mother who is 93 with dementia and it caused lots of conversations and helped me to analyse my own feelings as it is so beautifully written. This is not just for children.

First of all, I had no idea Sunny Bunnies had names! (Why wouldn't they, when they're like the Teletubbies of this toddler generation we're in, but still.) I love this book for young children! It's so cute and colorful, while also explaining emotions for kids! I'm going to have to get this now. 😅 I have genuine autistic joy about this book ✨

This is a nice book about explaining feelings for small children. We're at this stage at the moment with my little boy, trying to work out how we feel. We have read a similar book recently. I liked how it explained each feeling, gave it a colour and gave an example, although I did feel there were a few words/explanations that were a bit too advanced for the age it's aimed at such as the word 'pleasure'. And I think 'happy' might be a better word for 'joy' for the age range. I like the idea of the exercises at the back. Loved the cover and the overall design of the book!

This book about feelings was super cute. I loved reading it to my son. He loved looking at the pictures. The little bunnies were so cute. Very cute book, and helpful in teaching your little one about emotions

My kid really wanted to read this book because of the colourful cover.

"Sunny Bunnies: My Book of Feelings" is a kids book in which the basic emotions (love, anger, sadness, fear, surprise, joy, calm) are explained. Each emotion is described: how it feels, when you feel it and sometimes why you feel that way. At the end of the book are some "exercises" to help kids better deal with their emotions.

I found that the content did not really match the illustrations. I expected a fun book for 3-4 year-olds, this one is more serious and the content seems to be geared towards older kids, who are able to be more aware of what they are feeling.

I found the exercises at the end rather naive. They pretty much all involve taking a big breath and there doesn't really seem to be a lot of difference in how one approaches the different emotions.

4 starts because, even though it has good intentions, the actual result is not quite as polished as I expected.

I was interested in this book as my son is struggling with his emotions. He has mild cerebral palsy after a traumatic birth and his development has been atypical thus far. He has always been a calm, placid and timid boy up until a few months ago. His behaviour and personality completely changed; now he deals with a lot of hyperactivity and aggression. This change coincided with the start of his seizures and he has now been diagnosed with epilepsy.

We have been struggling to handle these new emotions he has been experiencing, as has he. Desperate to help him cope better, his teacher has sent home some feelings cards and this book supplements them incredibly well.

The book introduces 7 adorable bunnies who each represent a different emotion. It explains each feeling and emotion and gives an example which really helps little ones to understand. It also gives some exercises to do at the end to help control their emotions - which will come in really handy in the heat of the moment in our house.

I have also found my 4 year old who has experienced ‘typical’ development can benefit from this book also. He is dealing with a lot of frustration with his emotions and this book explains things in a simple and effective way for little minds to grasp.

Thankyou NetGalley for the copy.

I read this book to my 6 year old. Great illustrations and colouring. He found it engaging but also learnt a lot about his own emotions. The language is a bit more advanced for his age group, but I believe he got so much out of this book. The examples were a lovely touch too.

This book is filled woth fun illustrations with a colour schematic throughout making the book perfe t for children. I think the writing style could be tailored more towards children. I found it used big words that the age group this is designed for are likely not to know such as "positive", "pleasure", "comforted". Why not use more simple words just as des riding joy and happy, or saying you might need a hug or a blankey. Kids know what it is to be comforted. They generally do not know the word.

This children's book is written in a style for adults not children and children will likely find it hard to engage. Especially hard to read if they chose to read it by themselves.

I think this is a good choice for parents and caregivers looking to help nursery, preschool and infant school aged children learn about emotions. However, I do think the book itself is failing at the most simple thing - at being a children's book.

A quick, brief, to-the-point, matter-of-fact book with amazing fluffy characters jumping off the page. A great book to introduce the names of feelings, and what feelings are to younger kids.

Anything that helps you talk about feelings with pre-schoolers is a sure winner! This colorful, engaging, entertainingly designed book will definitely facilitate that conversation.

I grabbed this book when I was working as a Children's librarian, and even though I no longer am in that line of work I still enjoyed this super short book on feelings. The character art was just adorable and the whole concept reminded me of the emotions from inside out, which is one of my favorite movies. As an adult who struggles with my emotions, reading this short little book made me smile.

If you have little ones, I definitely recommend adding this one to your library.

Thank you Netgalley, the author, and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Have a little human with big emotions?? This book is perfect for explaining to young ones some of the emotions they experience as well as giving some suggestions for coping with their emotions. It’s a great way to get children talking about their emotions so they know what to do when the emotion arises.

The Sunny Bunnies are here to help your little one understand their feelings through description, colours and asking them questions.

The book cleverly links emotions to colours to allow your child to explain their feelings easier. I found the question at the end of each page to be a fantastic touch as it encouraged conversation and interaction. There were also 4 brilliant activities at the end of the book to help with regulating emotions.

The characters are colourful and engaging which is what you want to keep your little one interested.

The illustrations in this book are captivating. Children would be drawn to the bright and fun colors of each character. Each character is showing an emotion that teaches kids about that emotion. If a child is not an advanced reader, I suggest a parent read it with that child. The writing seems to be a bit advanced for new readers.

Love Always, Catherine

My class really enjoyed this book. It’s very colourful and ideal to help children identify different feelings and emotions.

A wonderful children's book on feelings, one I will purchase for the grandchildren. This book has fun characters and is very engaging for children. An easy children's book that can be used to teach kids about their feelings and how to be respectful of the feelings of others.

Sunny Bunnies: My Book of Feelings is a really good introductiory book for youngsters to learn about their feelings. It gave a swift overview of the main ones and applied a color to each of them, which I think caregivers would commonly agree with e.g., green represents calm, red represents anger, and blue is sadness.

I would have like to have seen a range of terminology. Because the descriptions of each emotion were so short, words like (un)pleasant and positive really stood out, whereas I thought the author could have led with different terms from one emotion to the next to really point out the difference between each one. That said, there was the inclusion of good examples of when each emotion might be felt, accompanied by the illustrations of the Sunny Bunnies depicting these feelings in their facial expressions and gestures.

This is a good book to bring out regularly to read with children as they are learning how to express, deal with, and explore their emotions. As an added bonus, there are four exercises at the back to assist with this.

This was a fun book to read with my daughter but to also utilize in my session with children's therapy clients. I would recommend this to parents and/or people who work with young kids.
