Reviews

Gr 3-6-This book is directed at children, but parents who want to help their youngsters with AD/HD build up self-esteem while learning to keep their temper might want to read it with them. The accessible text opens with a discussion of various feelings, including happy, bored, angry, calm, ashamed, followed by suggestions for "staying in your feel good zone," "feel good tools for specific upset feelings," and more. Illustrations are sprinkled throughout, and there are a few charts with fill-in blanks. Back matter has tips and resources for parents; the further reading for kids lists mostly other titles from the publisher of this book. Suitable for self-help and parenting collections.-Esther Keller, I.S. 278, Brooklyn, NYα(c) Copyright 2013. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
