Omschrijving
Feelings can be so confusing. Just when kids begin to understand their own emotions, they are expected to understand what other people are feeling, too. This book will help children identify various facial expressions and the feelings behind them.
A 1936 cum laude graduate of Williams College in Massachusetts, majoring in English, Gerard Emerson Langeler (named after Ralph Waldo Emerson) founded one of New England's largest advertising agencies. After retiring in 1982, he devoted his time to writing, producing an historical novel about the first Angle king of England, in the year 411. He became a Life Member of the prestigious Sutton Hoo Society of Woodbridge, East Anglia. An Eagle Scout, his earlier work with children as Scoutmaster and Sunday School superintendent led him to write his latest book, Let's Make Faces, dealing with how facial expressions can lead to a better understanding of basic emotions. This was discovered to be a hands on working tool for caretakers of children with autism. Langeler is a member of the New Hampshire Autism Society and lives in Dover in a retirement complex where he continues to write material that is also enjoyed by the residents of similar facilities across the country.
