I grew up on these books and absolutely love them! The Help Me Be Good books are great for young children. My children also loved them when they were young.

Read this to my girls today, let's see if it is of any help.

[Kylie Abecca · Rating 3 out of 5]

Certainly some great points and advice on avenues to direct anger and frustration. Really best used as a conversation starter than an all-round self-help style book.

This was a really nice concept for a book, but the execution was not quite there.
Note: gave book to Drek

I love all the Help me Be Good Books by Joy Berry. I had a couple handed down to me from my mom and I found a bunch of the series at a used book store and bought them all! My kids love reading them just for story night, but I also find them very helpful to read when we are having a problem with a certain trait.

Each book focuses on defining what the action is, how it makes people feel and what to do about it. It gives alternate ways to get attention. It's simple and quick and my kids love the little mouse or bunny character that pops up. The beginning shows what can happen when you do certain things, and in the end shows a much happier outcome if you try something different.

A Book About throwing tantrums helps explain to kids how to communicate needs and feelings effectively.

[Samantha Penrose · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book begins by explaining (to a child) what a tantrum is, and lists some different feelings and situations that may make you want to throw a tantrum. Next, the author talks about why it's not a good idea to throw a tantrum, but is clear that these feelings are normal, and offers suggestions for dealing with anger and frustration when it happens. Some reasonable solutions for avoiding anger-inducing situations and people are illustrated, and it's all wrapped up by reiterating that angry feelings are normal and should be expressed, just in a less disruptive way.

Such a great book for kids and adults to read together!! Joy Berry has a wonderful way of bringing things to a kids level to help them understand things better. Sometimes as an adult we forget kids see and process the world differently than us.

This series is wonderful for any home or classroom! I want them for he community center where I work!!

I love these little Help Me Be Good books. I think they make very valid points on important topics. To be honest I know some adults who could probably benefit from these books!.
This one touched on anger and reacting to it pretty well I thought....I didn't like the way everything was worded....but I think it was an age gap in readers more then anything.

Throwing Tantrums is a cut little book that is part of the 'Help me by Good' Series for children. It first shows what children do when they have a tantrum and what they do. The last part gives children advise how to deal with being angry, which is a normal feeling and ways to redirect anger and avoid situations that cause anger.

[Theresa · Rating 2 out of 5]

a great resource for parents and teachers to explain and evaluate behavior and expectation
