In a previous book by Michael Gordon Deano the dinosaur was introduced. This is the second book in this children’s series about emotions.
Deano is frustrated. His toys get knocked down, he can’t get the ball in soccer and things are just making him frustrated!
This is a good emotion to explore with children as it happens to the best of us!
The author goes through very concrete steps in how to handle frustration. Breathing and counting from 1 to 10 is a good place to start. Nice and calming while centering with the breathing.
At the end of the book are some coloring pages. Also some workbook style pages that help the young reader or child who is being read to, look at the body sensations that respond to emotions and help in identifying emotions.
A variety of ways to handle the feelings of frustration are explored at the end of the book in easy to read charts listing appropriate activities.
I like things that are concrete and easy to do for children. This book handles that nicely.
I would highly recommend this book for young children who are able to understand the concept of emotions and can follow simple directions handling those emotions.
Frustration is one that’s experienced by everyone! (Even adults could take a few tips from this book!)

Deano Dinosaur is frustrated. Mom and dad have been watching when he gets frustrated and his reactions. They give him pointers on ways he can try to calm himself down before he reacts poorly by stomping his feel and hurting others' feelings.
I love the coloring pages and identifying emotions pages at the end of the book.
While these books are geared toward younger children, it is sometimes important to validate feelings with our older children and help them find ways to "feel their feelings" but also find ways to react appropriately.
I was given the opportunity by Michael Gordon to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

"When I feel like giving up" is the right book to give to most kids who do not know how to control their emotions.
It is about a young dinosaur who is usually in a good mood until he becomes frustrated. Several examples are given. Many kids have the same problem and they can learn from the advice that the young dinosaur got from his mother.
The solution is not difficult and even very young children can understand it.
The book has several pages that the young reader can color and some challenges which are like games.

This series of books is just so timely. Dealing with and working through challenges and difficult emotions, like frustration, is an important lesson and this book does an excellent job of explaining the emotion and how to deal with it. Bonus points, since it's a story about dinosaurs. Like many little ones, our toddler is a fan of all things dinosaur. Two thumbs up!

We love all of your books, Michael Gordon! They have been a wonderful help for Sadie and me to understand and deal with her emotional outbursts! Thanks so much for sending them to us! Your books explain what I try to explain to her, but in an entirely different manner!

I read this book to my son, who is easy to give up and he immediately related to it. He often said hey I feel like that sometimes, mo.my I do that too. It was nice having a book to read that he genuinely relates to and is on his level.

Enjoyed reading this to my kids. We even tried the strategies at the end of the book together. We also talked about times they experienced these feelings and how they handled them.
