I enjoyed this book when it was released because it was such a novel idea. I'd never seen this style of illustration in a children's book and it allows kids to think outside the box. I also enjoyed that it gave another chance to teach about the identification and naming of emotions. In the classroom, I would have children create their own feelings books. We could make a fruit or veggie snack. StephanieWhite | Jan 30, 2009 | Evan babies 'get' these pictures. Great for talking about feelings. (  ) weedmore | Dec 26, 2008 | Booklist (Vol. 96, No. 11 (February 1, 2000)) Ages 3-6. Devious oranges, shy radishes, a socially outcast leek? All roll across the colorful pages of this novelty book. With expertly cut mouths and seed eyes, a variety of produce shows a roller coaster of emotional states--happiness, shyness, love, jealousy, embarrassment--as rhyming text asks children about feelings: "When you're angry, do you pout? Whine? Cry? Scream? Shout?" Kids will find the inherent silliness irresistible and be drawn in by the book's visual appeal: the colors are strong, the photography is excellent, and the expressions, derived from the natural lumps and bumps of the fruits and vegetables (enhanced by a few incisions), are surprisingly masterful. Adults may use this as a starting point for discussing feelings with the very young. But most likely, kids will flip through the pages for quick, easy laughs. (Titlewave) ( ) Lorrie | May 14, 2007 | Photos of fruits and vegetables sculpted and arranged (e.g., black-eyed peas positioned as eyes on other vegetables) to reflect various moods and feelings. Rhyming text asks, "How are you feeling? Happy? Sad? Feeling blue? Feeling bad? Can a gentle, smiling friend try to cheer you up again?... How do you feel when someone is mean? Timid? Bold? Or in-between? When you're angry, do you pout? Whine? Cry? Scream? Shout?" and so on. ( ) UWC_PYP | Jul 4, 2006 |  no reviews | add a review

I loved this book! I thought it was funny and cute. I think kids would really enjoy it and at the same way learn about the different types of moods.
In the classroom i would have the kids make their own produce face! have different things cut out and the kids could just glue it to the produce. then when he or she finishes have them write which feeling their produce was expressing. Or i would have the kids draw three different types of expressions on a piece of paper.
