I am the parent of two year old twin girls. This book and CD brings forward an excellent approach to learning in a fun and colorful way. It's a must have for explaining emotions that are difficult for little ones to sometimes grasp. Thank-you Marla for your creativity, passion and love of education!

I teach NYC children with Autism, ages 5-14, and this CD and book helped me to convey the difficult abstract idea of emotions in a fun, musical and visual way. Children look forward to hearing the songs each class session and I let them choose the songs which match how they are felling that day. For my non-verbal students, the images and music provide a way to communicate their internal world in a fresh and interactive way. Thanks for creating the good work, Marla!!

You’ll never believe it! Abraham is crazy about your Book and CD! We have told him all about you too, that you were Daddy’s friend (High Park Youth House Foundation Dr. Bill Wine, recently passed away). He wants to call you and tell you how much he likes the EMOTIONS Book & CD! I like it too….refreshing reggae vibes! Hope you are well and thanks so much for the music.

As we all know, children often have difficulty identifying, understanding, and expressing their volatile emotions and varied feelings, so I was grateful for a fun and creative way to develop my children's vocabulary in this area and their emotional intelligence. I was pleased that my children, a 5 1/2 year-old boy and 3 1/2 year-old girl, were immediately captivated by the energetic music and the humorous and insightful lyrics. The CD quickly became the children's favorite musical entertainment, surpassing Sharon, Lois, and Bram; Dan Zane; and Raffi! To my surprise, both my son and daughter memorized the lyrics, which they delight in reciting, and they now rely on the vocabulary to express their feelings to me and to their friends and family. Marla has subsequently published the EMOTIONS BOOK which is sold together with the CD. This brightly coloured, illustrated book, examines 10 emotions, and it's the perfect tool to promote literacy and to help children identify and express their feelings...Having tested it on my own children, I cannot praise this creative and educational resource enough!
