The bold illustrations and wonderful rhyming text in this book help kids deal with expressing and understanding emotions while wearing a mask. When faces are half-hidden by masks, children may have difficulty decoding the moods of others and, in turn, may find it challenging to fully express their own emotions when their mouths are hidden behind masks. This book help kids look for clues and cues, such as words, gestures, and body language to understand how others are feeling even when they can't see their full facial expressions. It offers a wonderful read-aloud opportunity, both at home or in a classroom setting, to address social distancing anxieties or worries about new rules.
