Cloud®
Cloud, like the weather can be a bit unpredictable. One day he is happy, the next he is mad and the next day, who knows, maybe sad or even happy again. Cloud can show his moods with a simple twist of his head. Cloud’s head actually turns! He has a happy face on one side and a sad face on the other. Cloud comes with three feelings: Happy, Sad, and Mad and the how-to Feel Guide.
