"A young guinea pig describes situations when she feels sad...as well as how the emotion feels, 'a cloudy, tired feeling.' Illustrated with simple, friendly watercolors, the text conveys that it is 'all right' to feel and show sadness and to recover."
"This is a well-constructed and useful resource for family and classroom sharing."
