The purpose of this book is to allow children to become familiar with and to hopefully use in their everyday language many adjectives that describe feelings. Too many children, when they see the face of a character in a book, describe what that character may be feeling as good, happy, sad, or mad. I have taught Title 1 children from the first to the sixth grade for the past eleven years, and these are my findings. I also hope that parents and children alike, after reading this book, will come to realize that being annoyed can end happily, that someone who is teasing someone else will realize that all people are important, that its okay to be cranky once in a while, and that your cranky face probably is not as pretty as your happy face. This book, A Pocketful of Feelings, is a collection of six short stories featuring an adjective describing a feeling. These are adjectives that are not as commonly used as they could be. I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I do.
