Product Description
Here's another inspired picture book from the best-selling author-illustrator team of Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born and When I Was Little: A Four-Year-Old's Memoir of Her Youth.
Amazon.com Review
Jamie Lee Curtis has starred in many movies, but she says that the children's books she has written mean more to her than any of her films. She and artist Laura Cornell have previously collaborated on two bestselling books: Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born and When I Was Little: A Four-Year-Old's Memoir of Her Youth. This time, we follow a little girl with curly red hair through 13 different moods, beginning with silly: "Today I feel silly. / Mom says it's the heat. I put rouge on the cat / and gloves on my feet." Of course, silly soon turns to grumpy and mean... to excited... to confused, and so on. Recognizing one's own mood swings is a developmental milestone, one that some adults haven't yet mastered! Cornell's watercolor illustrations--wildly expressive and energetic--effectively capture the volatility of our redheaded star. Whether she is happy or mad or dancing a solo in jazz, she is always "full of pizzazz," and this book is, too. A clever mood wheel on the last page allows young readers to change the little girl's expression--both her eyes and mouth. This is silly fun with a smart lesson for children from ages 4 to 8. --Marcie Bovetz

A friend recommended this book, and our kids love it - especially the last page where they can create their own silly face.

This book was a joy to read to my son, who sometimes has a bad day. This book was fun, with it's colorful pages, and the fun way that the book explains that having different emotions is OK. Great buy!!
Today I Feel Silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day March 28, 2009
Loree A. Saporito (San Jose, Ca)
This was an adorable book that speaks to all people old or young. As a Preschool teacher this addresses all of our childhood issues that we weren't able to express. It expresses to children that it is ok to feel sad, happy, silly, scared, etc. and express and feel their own emotions.
Great book for my 7 year old daughter! March 8, 2009
M. Demos
This book and the two other Jaimie Lee Curtis books we have are just wonderful! My daughter got it as a gift from a relative who is a teacher. It is a great book with wonderful illustrations. Sooo cute and funny. My daughter loves this story.
