Big feelings are a natural part of childhood-but understanding them doesn't always come easily.

What Makes You Happy? is a gentle and engaging picture book that supports early social-emotional learning (SEL) by helping children begin the important process of identifying and understanding their feelings. As a foundational first step in SEL, recognizing emotions allows children to build the skills needed for communication, self-awareness, and connection.

Through simple language and warm, expressive illustrations, children are introduced to a wide range of emotions-from joy and excitement to frustration and sadness-in a way that feels safe, relatable, and reassuring.

Designed for toddlers and early learners, this book helps children develop emotional awareness and confidence in expressing how they feel.

Perfect for parents, caregivers, and educators, What Makes You Happy? encourages meaningful conversations and supports emotional growth at home and in the classroom.
