The Blob Visual Emotional Thesaurus

By Ian Long

---

This unique visual thesaurus is designed to help

writers of all ages to develop their emotional

literacy.

 

The book focuses solely upon emotions. Spanning

circa 140 emotional words it is divided into three

sections: ranges of emotions (offering a visual

spectrum to be referred to by writers unsure of

the intensity of feelings), synonyms (each image

has similar images and words underneath it along

with a sentence to help a new writer see how it

can be embedded into a story), and antonyms –

opposite pairs of feelings that are useful when

wishing to create contrast in a storyline.

 

This book will be a vital reference for every

classroom and can be used individually or in

whole class activities.
