This review is from: 131 Creative Strategies for Reaching Children With Anger Problems (Paperback)

While there is a nice presentation of what anger is, many of the 131 "creative" strategies aren't creative at all, but just a rehashing of common knowledge. Maybe the title should be "25 Creative Strategies.."
