Product Description
This book presents a clear and effective approach to helping children and adults alike understand and deal constructively with children's anger. The book offers engaging, well-organised activities which help to overcome the fear of children's anger which many adult care-givers experience, and distinguishes between anger the feeling, and violence the behaviour. Primarily created for ages 6 to thirteen, it is accessible for use in class or at home.

Customer Reviews
A great book!
have used this book recently with a 12 year old undergoing anger management who was regularly losing his temper, on average every 2-3 days.
In 2 sessions, which have included selected exercises from this book, he has gone from swearing, hitting, throwing furniture etc to realising when to leave potentially volatile situations! In the last 3 weeks there have been only 2 'anger' episodes - and both times he walked away!
This, I feel, is a real testament to this book's worth!
The exercises are simple and easily photocopiable and/or adaptable for each individual. Some exercises are intended for group work but most are readily adaptable for individual coaching if, like myself, this is how you choose to work.
Brilliant Book!
This is a great book, nice print and easy to read. I was desperate to help my son who gets angry and frustrated quite alot. He is autistic and has speech and language problems and it was distressing to see him so angry. This book has helped alot.
Fantastic
I have used this book as a teacher doing PSD in class. It has been brilliant helping children face up to and deal with anger. I am now about to purchase it to use with my own son who experiences a lot a fustration due to having aspergers.
