How I Feel: A Coloring Book for Grieving Children

By: Alan Wolfelt, Ph.D.

Exploring GriefArt Therapy

The expressive, easy-to-color drawings clearly depict disbelief, fear, anger, loneliness, happiness, sadness, and other normal grief feelings. And the simple text accompanying the drawings (“Someone I love has died”; “Ever since this person died, I have felt new and scary feelings. Grown-ups call these feelings grief”; “Sometimes I feel all alone”; “Sometimes I hurt inside”) provides grieving children with words to describe their new, sometimes scary feelings.

Dr. Wolfelt’s coloring book for kids ages 3-8 explores many of the feelings grieving children often experience.
