SHADY BABY FEELS is a cute board book that features Shady Baby who is baking some cupcakes with her parents. As things go awry and are fixed, Shady Baby experiences different emotions. They end up finishing the cupcakes, and Shady Baby feels proud!

What I loved: This is a fun way for young readers to match emotions with expressions. The text is brief, but shows how Shady Baby feels with a simple sentence. There are a few additional sentences to provide context as the baking process continues, but it mainly labels the emotions along with the expressive character. Simple backgrounds and an adorable main character will work well for the youngest of readers, and the low amount of text on each page is perfect for older infants and young toddlers.

While it does not go into details for any of the emotions or resolution of them, this is a great early book to talk about emotions, which primarily allows children to match up facial expressions with emotion labels.

Final verdict: SHADY BABY FEELS is a sweet board book that helps to introduce emotions to little ones in a charming story about baking!
