Dealing with Feeling Happy (Dealing with Feeling...)

This book, part of the Dealing with Feeling series, looks at happiness. Topics covered within the book include what happiness feels like, how to turn sad feelings into happy ones, and how to make other people feel happy.

“This community-minded series aims to help readers identify common emotions they or others might have. Students are assured that it's normal and acceptable to feel negative feelings, but they must be expressed in ways that are not hurtful to others. Jealous, Proud, Sad, and Shy are notable for their nuanced treatment of complex affects. The multicultural casts of expressive cartoon characters are depicted in numerous situations. Each volume contains a "Toolbox" activity that advises readers to write down ways to maintain good feelings and dispel bad ones. . . .its content is Common Core State Standards ready and will instill self-awareness in children, meriting inclusion in elementary school libraries.”
