About this title

From the Inside Flap

How do dinosaurs say I'M MAD? When little dinosaurs get angry, they sometimes misbehave. In this book, readers will laugh aloud to see them yell and stomp in a full range of naughty, dinosaur-sized antics.
But after a dinosaur storms around the house, it's time to calm down. That's when a dinosaur knows to count to ten, take a deep breath, clean up the mess...and give hugs! Mama and Papa don't like temper tantrums, but they always love their children. Everybody gets mad sometimes. Parents, teachers, and children can talk about it. We do lots of different things to handle anger. What do you do?
