This book was bought for my 10 year old girl who was developing some anger issues. Even though we have talked about it, she was in denial. One day, she became very angry and it escalated. For her one of her punishments, I required her to read 3 chapters (since the chapters are short) everyday and then we would discuss it. She was very reluctant. However, after reading the first couple of chapters, she came to me and told me she learned alot. She even talked about, which she would never do before. This was a very very helpful book.

The text and illustrations make this self-help book appealing for children. They can read it independently but parents and teachers should read it also. It gives concrete steps for handling anger, seeking help when adults are angry, etc. The introduction starts with a discussion of why you need this book.
