Today I Feel Silly & Other Moods That Make My Day

This 1998 printing of Today I Feel Silly & Other Moods That Make My Day by beloved children’s author Jamie Lee Curtis, illustrated by the award-winning artist Laura Cornell, has been thoughtfully transformed into a handcrafted journal. Known for its joyful, expressive illustrations and honest celebration of childhood emotions, this modern classic invites readers to recognize all the moods that make us human.

Laura Cornell’s artwork, recognized as a Caldecott Honor in 2011 for Babushka Baba Yaga, brings warmth and emotional depth to every page. Her playful watercolor style shines throughout this book, capturing everything from belly-laugh silly days to softer, quieter moments with tenderness and charm.

The entire original story is preserved within the journal, paired with clean writing paper for reflections, sketches, or daily thoughts. Each journal becomes a small emotional keepsake, blending the colorful storytelling of this beloved children’s book with open space for your own voice.

Every piece is individually handcrafted, meaning each journal carries the character and gentle wear of its vintage source and no two are exactly alike.
