"Kara Marziali has written a brilliantly simple and meaningful book that will surely help parents talk to their children about complex feelings that are often so difficult for children to understand. Kara Koala and her Kaleidoscope of Feelings is a must-have book during the challenging times we live in."
- Leslie Loomis, Ph.D., Massachusetts School Psychologist

"Kara Koala and her Kaleidoscope of Feelings is a wonderful book that will help young children know it is OK to be a bit overwhelmed or confused about their emotions. In an increasingly complex world that gives far little time for children to be in touch with their emotional lives, this book will help to create that space."
- Barry M. Prizant, Ph.D., CCC-SLP Author: Uniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism

"I was relieved to finally find a story that addresses the feelings of anxiety and their complexity. Kara Koala and Her Kaleidoscope of Feelings is an exploration of those unsettling emotions. Kara Marziali puts these feelings into a well-woven story with relatable characters. Calming techniques, such as breathing exercises, give children a strategy to deal with those uncomfortable feelings."
- Nicole R. DiCarlo, Rhode Island Elementary School Educator
