This book is good for all ages and targets children who may need help controlling themselves or learning how to behave in a social setting. It is very direct, funny, and very relevant. This author is a genius. I recommend this book for special education classes, inclusion classes, and especially for children on the Autism spectrum. It is probably useful in many k, 1, 2, and 3 grades.

This is a fabulous book that teaches kids to stop interrupting in a fun yet meaningful way. I work individually with kids and they often ask if they can take this book back for their whole class to share! All the teachers I have lent it to loved it as well!

A great book to teach kids about the perils of interrupting others. How clever and with great illustrations.

This book is fun and enjoyable while teaching young children when it is appropriate to speak. The pictures are a wonderful compliment to the storyline.

I LOVE this Book...and this author! I teach Kindergarten/First Grade and have used all of Julia Cook's books in my classroom. Her ideas are wonderful and simple enough for students to understand. I highly recommend her work to others....At last! Books that teach things we've struggled with for years as teachers....Thank you, Ms. Cook.

I bought this book because my daughter had been having issues interrupting both at school and at home. The book arrived in the mail and my daughter, she's 7, started to read it on her own. She got to the part where the words wiggle and then jiggle and then I erupt. She turned to me and she said "mom that's what happens to me". We read it together and I'm very hopeful that the book will help with her interrupting problem and even if it doesn't it's a very cute book.

i bought this for my students, but i think it's about me...i'm working on it. great book to introduce the topic to elementary students...especially the adhd students (and adults). it's great too when paired with one of my favorite posters: "Did I say that out loud?"

Fun book, the kids love the pictures. more for 1st and 2nd even 3rd graders, little too much for early child hood or kindergarten

This was a great book. It was very appropriate for dealing with students who always shout out. My students really enjoyed it.

I teach full-day kindergarten and LOVE reading this book in the beginning of the year. Then I can remind students to not let their mouths be a volcano and they really 'get it'. Blurting out is a hard habit to break, but this really helps...and in a most understanding way.
