I really liked the premise of this story

I really liked the premise of this story and as an adult, I found it really educational. I wondered if it was too detailed or wordy for children and that it may have more impact with a simplified message somehow. Excellent concept, well done

So good for kids who mask their emotions!

Omg I’m obsessed with the book, just read it 3x with the kids!!! Straight away they talked about masking their own feelings, they were obsessed with the hide and seek of the feelings monster, lots of chat about their own feelings, now they want to colour in the colour monster and write their grumpies and sads down and throw in the fireplace!!
