This is a wonderful little story book about emotions. Nicholas is a toddler and Goldie is the big sister. Veronica is her doll. When Nicholas sucked on Veronica's head, Goldie yelled, "Veronica hates baby spit. I hate baby spit!" When Goldie gets mad, she (and Veronica, of course) have bad thoughts -- like making Nicholas disappear. But, when Nicholas is good, Veronica loves him, and Goldie does, too! A time-out makes Goldie and her doll realize that they are really sorry. This book deals with the real emotions that little children have. Addressing them in a humorous manner, which also shows that they are not right, makes Goldie is Mad a winner in any household with young children. Adorable illustrations and very clever writing make this book a must.
My 5-year-old got a kick out of it

She has a little brother (16 months) who she likes a lot but who still gets on her nerves and into her toys. She thought the last page with Nicholas going after Veronica again was very funny.
Goldie makes my 2 1/2 year old laugh out loud!

This book really makes my 2 1/2 year old laugh out loud. He is a big brother and he can really relate to Goldie especially when she has to sit in a time-out to think about her actions. The illustrations are fantastic and my son laughs throughout the whole book. This is a great book about 'mad' feelings.
