Abstract	Emotional regulation is the ability to understand emotions and develop strategies to modulate them. Regulating emotions is important for children because it enables them to focus their attention, approach and learn in new situations, and form lasting and sincere friendships. Emotional regulation contributes to success in the classroom, with one's peers, and in every aspect of life. Unfortunately, not all children develop emotional regulation easily, and this is compounded for students with special needs. Teachers and caregivers need to find constructive ways to coach and support children with special needs. Achieving content standards and being successful in school depends on emotional regulation. Fortunately, positive and structured experiences using picture books can play a key role. Picture books are easily accessible, cognitively stimulating and motivating, and have affective value--and they are therefore a reasonable medium to use with students with disabilities or when teaching students emotional regulation strategies.
