Download or read book When Elephants Weep written by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson and published by Delta. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This national bestseller exploring the complex emotional lives of animals was hailed as "a masterpiece" by Elizabeth Marshall Thomas and as "marvelous" by Jane Goodall. The popularity of When Elephants Weep has swept the nation, as author Jeffrey Masson appeared on Dateline NBC, Good Morning America, and was profiled in People for his ground-breaking and fascinating study. Not since Darwin's The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals has a book so thoroughly and effectively explored the full range of emotions that exist throughout the animal kingdom. From dancing squirrels to bashful gorillas to spiteful killer whales, Masson and coauthor Susan McCarthy bring forth fascinating anecdotes and illuminating insights that offer powerful proof of the existence of animal emotion. Chapters on love, joy, anger, fear, shame, compassion, and loneliness are framed by a provocative re-evaluation of how we treat animals, from hunting and eating them to scientific experimentation. Forming a complete and compelling picture of the inner lives of animals, When Elephants Weep assures that we will never look at animals in the same way again.

Download or read book Apt Imaginings written by Jonathan Gilmore and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apt Imaginings addresses the question of how our emotions and desires for the contents of fictions, fantasies, and other products of the imagination relate to the feelings we have about things in the real world. A contribution to the theory of the emotions, the philosophy of fiction, and the psychology of art, this book argues that the normative criteria that determine the fit, morality, or rationality of our feelings for what we believe are distinct from those criteria that apply to what we imagine.
Download or read book Monster Feelings written by Laura Tyson and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feelings can seem like scary monsters. Especially for preschool and elementary-aged children who are discovering all sorts of big emotions. Research has shown that learning to identify and name emotions helps children (and adults) regulate them. This playful book helps parents and kids explore their feelings in a fun way while also providing a vocabulary to name specific emotions. Seven illustrated monsters bring to life the core emotions we all feel: Sadness, Envy, Shame, Love, Anger, Joy, and Fear. Each monster is a different color and correlates to a 'circle of friends' (i.e. feeling wheel) that uses a gradient of the monster's color to indicate 15 more nuanced emotions ranging from subtle (lighter shade) to intense (darker shade). Monster Feelings can be read at storytime or bedtime, used as a communication tool during meltdowns (can you point to how you're feeling? What color do you see right now?), or taught as curriculum in preschool/grade school. Begin reading Monster Feelings to: Help kids (and adults) identify and understand a range of emotions (more than just happy/sad/mad) Provide a shared vocabulary for kids and their parents to discuss their feelings. Remove the stigma around "being emotional" (spoiler: humans are emotional beings by design) We all feel what we feel. It's how we act on those feelings that's important. Identifying the specific emotion is the first step in regulating our emotions. This book is a must-have for parents seeking to raise resilient, emotionally intelligent kids. What people are saying about Monster Feelings: "Laura came to my daycare to read her new children's book Monster Feelings. It has 7 cute, little monsters & each one is a different emotion that we all feel. Children big and small would enjoy and benefit from this book as it teaches mindfulness in a fun & creative way. Excellent for at home or as a classroom resource! I would highly recommend this book." - Kim, Owner, Kim's Kreative Korner (California, USA) "I love [Monster Feelings] - there's so much there - vocabulary building, a refrain that can become a mantra." - Emily, Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist (Chester, UK) "Not only does Monster Feelings help kids navigate their emotions, but it will also be an excellent resource and reference for summer camp counselors (typically teenagers or young adults) as they guide kids throughout their camp experience." - Travis Allison, Award-Winning Marketing Strategist for International Summer Camps, Founder of CampHacker, and Co-Founder of Go Camp Pro (Ontario, Canada) "Monster Feelings has been a great tool in opening up channels of communication with our foster son on the subject. It has really helped him in identifying his emotions and opened up discussions on properly expressing them. For a young kid in foster care, this book created a safe and fun environment to talk openly about his emotions. I would highly recommend this book not just for the kids but for parents as well." - Rebecca, Foster Parent to 7-year-old (Georgia, USA) "Laura Tyson has filled a huge need in raising the kick-ass kids who will lead us in a volatile, uncertain future. Monster Feelings helps kids develop a critical skill that we need them to master: emotional literacy. The people who can label and name their feelings take us closer to creating a society with greater empathy. These future leaders will grow up to make our most important decisions infused with higher levels of EQ." - Dr. Robert Zeitlin, Positive School Psychologist, Author of "Laugh More, Yell Less: A Guide to Raising Kick-Ass Kids" (Pennsylvania, USA)
Download or read book Pleasurable Kingdom written by Jonathan Balcombe and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2006-05-02 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recognition of animal pain and stress, once controversial, is now acknowledged by legislation in many countries, but there is no formal recognition of animals' ability to feel pleasure. Pleasurable Kingdom is the first book for lay-readers to present new evidence that animals--like humans--enjoy themselves. It debunks the popular perception that life for most is a continuous, grim struggle for survival and the avoidance of pain. Instead it suggests that creatures from birds to baboons feel good thanks to play, sex, touch, food, anticipation, comfort, aesthetics, and more. Combining rigorous evidence, elegant argument and amusing anecdotes, leading animal behavior researcher Jonathan Balcombe proposes that the possibility of positive feelings in creatures other than humans has important ethical ramifications for both science and society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring picture book biography about the inimitable Fred Rogers, beloved creator and star of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. Fred Rogers was a quiet boy with big feelings. Sometimes, he felt scared or lonely; at other times, he was playful and joyous. But when Fred’s feelings felt too big, his Grandfather McFeely knew exactly what to say to make him feel better: I like you just the way you are. Fred grew up and created Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, the television program that would go on to warm the hearts and homes of millions of Americans. But one day, the government threatened to cut funding for public television, including Fred’s show. So, Fred stepped off the set and into a hearing on Capitol Hill to make his feelings known. In a portrait full of warmth and feeling, Laura Renauld and award-winning illustrator Brigette Barrager tell the story of Mister Rogers: a quiet, compassionate hero whose essential message—that it is okay to have and to express feelings—still resonates today.

Their hair billows in brilliant hues, their dresses end in fishtails, and their joy fills the train car. When Julián gets home, daydreaming of the magic he’s seen, all he can think about is dressing up just like the ladies in his own fabulous mermaid costume: a butter-yellow curtain for his tail, the fronds of a potted fern for his headdress. But what will Abuela think about the mess he makes — and even more importantly, what will she think about how Julián sees himself? Mesmerizing and full of heart, Jessica Love’s author-illustrator debut is a jubilant picture of self-love and a radiant celebration of individuality.
