This funny picture book can be a fun read for students. It goes through different images of fruit and vegetables that have been made to look like faces. I would recommend this book to 3rd and up grades because this is an easy read but its also for more mature elementary grades due to the pictures. I could see students in my classroom reading this together, building reading skills.

- Age: Primary

- About foods and moods

- I would not have this in my classroom as the pictures are kind of scary.

-good as uses vegetables to show emotions, bit of humour ( )

How Are You Peeling? is a vibrant and engaging text that strives to teach emotional intelligence. The book discusses different scenarios and feelings that could be associated with them. The book is vibrantly illustrated with food sculptures done by the author. The illustrations help to show what these emotions could look like but helps to make a seemingly serious topic lively and fun. One quote I like from the text is "Do you let your feelings show? Who do you love? How do they know?" I think books like this are so important because developing a sense of emotional intelligence and self reflection is so important for everyone and How Are You Peeling? does it in a silly and child friendly way.
