Review Quotes: "This book brings to life a little-acknowledged aspect of the complex world of children's social and emotional development: the experience of multiple emotions. The children's story speaks directly to children in respectful, straightforward, and loving ways, exploring the many facets of emotions that will resonate with children. The Guide for Caring Adults will help adults understand, support, and extend the experience for children. All children--and the adults who care for them--need this book as an important support for navigating the everyday and out-of-the-ordinary experiences that we are faced with throughout our lives."--Christine Chaillé, Ph.D., professor emeritus and author of early childhood curriculum books
