Review

"Walter Was Worried" by Laura Vaccaro Seeger is a truly unique picture book. It deals with various children feeling different emotions in regards to changing weather and actually creates the features on their faces with the letters of the word (for example, Walter is Worried, and his face has a wrinkle shaped like the letter W; O and E make his eyes; R's are his uplifted eyebrows; I makes his nose, and D is his open worried mouth). Very clever. Totally recommend adding it to your picture book collection, both for learning emotions and letters. ~Reviewed by Kate Radke

Overall Book Score: excellent
