On Monday When It Rained: A Gentle Photographic Picture Book About Emotions for Kids (Ages 4-7)

This is a great book to help children learn about feelings. I love the visual images of emotions which display various emotions. The book is a great way to start conversations about feelings. Helping young children learn social emotional awareness.

I purchased this book to use with Zones of Regulation Curriculum. I like that the book is short and straight to the point. It holds young children's attention and is relatable. I was able to have some good, age appropriate discussion with the students based on what was in the book and relate it to Zones of Regulation as well.

I bought this for my daughter when she was about two and a half. She liked it then and is still very intrigued by it several months later. I love seeing the wheels turn in her mind as she imagines and works to comprehend someone else's predicament. Relatable emotions for a young child. Great photos.

I like all but two pages of this book. This is due to the facial expression that is not common so it's not very easily interpreted or imitated. I also don't care for the way it ends (the resolution or the facial expression). When I read it I make up my own ending. Overall, it's a great resource for teaching kids that it's normal to experience a variety of feelings within a short period of time. I actually liked that it was black and white.

Really great classic book about feelings. Nice and simple and the real pictures are perfect. Of course my son loves the one where he burps...I love books like this for my kids that address real situations they face. Perfect for talking about when they felt these ways and also seeing that it is a normal part of life and perfectly acceptable to feel these different ways at different times. Having labels for feelings is super helpful for little ones to reduce fits etc :)

I’m using this for my 4 year old to teach Zones of Regulation- they have a lot of free resources on their site including a list of books and this was one of them that I couldn’t find at the library. The expressions are really great in this book- the kid and photographer did a great job getting disappointed, proud, embarrassed and more.

Perfect book for teaching temporary state of emotions and how our faces express feelings, as well as our bodies. Students enjoy guessing the emotion and then showing how they look when they are disappointed, embarrassed, etc. I used this as part of a mindfulness lesson with K-2 classrooms.

This is a great book to help young kids talk about and identify emotions. I love using it with my students with Autism.

I love the pictures!

Excellent and exactly what I was looking for as an introduction to feeling for primary aga children.

This book is great and goes with the Zones nicely. My grade one class is going to do a class rewrite.

Great book simple to teach young children about emotions

my kids love this story
