Overview

"Learning about big feelings is as easy as A-B-C with this imaginative alphabet book. On the heels of his popular Painting With... series comes Joshua James Cole's newest offering, an alphabet book series that introduces important early education concepts. In Fruit Doesn't Feel, readers learn about the ABCs while also learning about emotions. In Fruit Doesn't Feel, each lively spread provides a fruit of a certain letter experiencing an emotion with the same letter, providing children an opportunity to identify big feelings and how they might present themselves or make us feel. Using a combination of both common and little known fruits, the book's clever and alliterative text, including ""Are grapes grumpy?"" and ""Is dragon fruit disenchanted?"" goes on to provide a definition of that emotion and also a silly and imaginative exchange by the fruit further explaining its big feeling. Families and educators of young children will welcome this imaginative opportunity to explore and discuss emotions, how they make them feel, and how to cope with them. A glossary of fruits is included at the back of the book including ways to use the book at home and in the classroom to better understand reactions to our own emotions and those of others."

Author Information

"Children's book author and illustrator Joshua James Cole has always enjoyed telling stories, even making up tales with his younger brother as a child. But when he was in the fifth grade and one of his stories was chosen as ""story of the week,"" he knew writing books was in his future.Joshua was further inspired by his daughters, wanting to create learning stories that were fun and engaging. With his picture book series, ""Painting With..."" and an ABCs book series that promotes healthy eating habits and helps children identify big feelings, Joshua aims to bring stories to his daughters and all children that are amusing, creative, and educational and that stay with them long after the book is closed. A published author of adult fiction under a pen name, when Joshua isn't creating vibrant and unique children's books, he likes going for walks, enjoying the outdoors, and spending time with his family where they live on the seacoast of New Hampshire. He can often be found reading stories to his children using a brilliant British accent."
