5.0 out of 5 stars great tool for teaching kids about feelings, September 27, 1999

By A Customer

I found this book and the whole "Let's Talk About" series an excellent way to teach my daughter (2 1/2 y.o.) how to express her feelings. I like the fact that the characters are real kids, not silly animals or Disney characters. The drawings are great for showing kids how to express anger, their confusion about feelings, and how to feel better afterwards. It's definitely worked wonders for my daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars My most often used book on anger for children, July 24, 2001

By	bonniecarrine (Springfield, MA United States) - See all my reviews

This book, like all of the books in the series, is written from the pet's point of view. Max the dog observes all different types of situations that cause his owner, Maria, to feel mad. He also cautions against certain reactions, and then gives page after page of possible ideas kids can try when they're feeling angry. Each page allows easy discussion to develop between you and the child, in which you can bring in details and examples from your child's life. I have read this book to preschool classrooms and in therapy with young children, with great response. The illustrations are super--the children can "read" it back to me after hearing it, just by following the illustrations. It's just the right length,too. Not too short to be useless, and not so long as to lose the child's interest,
