Customer Reviews

A great book for begining a discussion about feelings

Pat Cummings has created a great story with expressive and vibrant pictures. I especially liked the thought from Alex's father as he tells why he couldn't stay angry. This is a great way to help kids see through the anger and look at what is really bothering them and learning to deal with it. I teach 2nd grade and this book is right on their level.
