Editorial Reviews

Brad Was Sad is a rhyming picture book that safely explores emotions. Brad discovers an inner strength to own his feelings and self-regulate.

The painted illustrations of Brad and his biracial family are rich in both moody colors and texture that add an expressive touch to Brad’s feelings. They also demonstrate the loving bond and connection he has with his dog; and the smile on Brad’s face as he discovers his emotions are his, and his alone, is warm and uplifting.

For families and classrooms of younger children that are exploring the idea of emotions, Brad Was Sad makes a positive contribution and will leave readers feeling empowered to find their own inner strength, just like Brad.
