Joe on Sunday is a delightful picture book that gently explores the spectrum of a child's emotions and behaviors throughout the week. Each day, Joe acts like a different animal or character, such as a pig, lion, mouse, monkey, monster, and king, depending on how he feels. This provides a wonderful, lighthearted metaphor for the big feelings young children experience. It's a fantastic tool for parents to open conversations about emotions, helping children understand that it's normal to feel many different ways and that these feelings can change from day to day. The book culminates in a peaceful Sunday, offering a sense of calm and resolution.
Every day Joe seems to be someone different as he behaves from dawn to dusk like a pig, lion, mouse, monkey, monster, and king--depending on how he feels.
