The Color Monster: A Story about Emotions

Adhd suspected in my 4 year old. He has big emotional rollercoasters. But reading the book everyday, watching someone read it on youtube too has made a considerable change in his behavior not only at home but at kindergarten. Even my 2 year old loves it and it helps her too!!

👍🏼

A gorgeous book! Cannot recommend it enough. A beautifully simple way to discuss emotions and feelings.

This isn't the actual story! It's shorter and does not make sense as its not complete. Was confused when I read it to my child.

I love the colors and illustrations, and the concept of understanding emotions, identifying them and learning how to deal with them is beautifully captured in this story. but I found it hard to digest how I can explain linking colors to emotions. I don’t really agree that red is the color of anger and black is fear. I already requested to return this book and waiting for updates because it won’t help me teach my 19m old baby what colors are.

The book is faulty. The internal pages are upside down. Didn’t realise till after returns window was closed as it was a gift. Ridiculous. Don’t both buying.

NOT A POP UP BOOK. This is a shorter version than the original. Not good enough to tell stories about emotions

This was the first book I bought for teaching my 2 and 4yo kids about emotions and feelings, it is such an easy, nice way of describing feelings. Also helped with my children’s fear of monsters to see that the Colour monster also cries, is scared, calm - big thumbs up for this one

The Color Monster has been incredibly helpful for our little guy, who experiences strong emotions. The story does a fantastic job of breaking down complex feelings into simple, relatable concepts, with each emotion represented by a color. It’s a great way to help kids understand and express how they’re feeling. The illustrations are beautiful and engaging, and the colors really capture the mood of each emotion, making it easy for kids to connect with the story. It’s also sparked some meaningful conversations in our home about emotions and how to manage them. This book is a must-have for any parent looking to help their child navigate big feelings in a fun and gentle way. Highly recommend it for young kids, especially those with strong emotions or who are still learning to express themselves!
