This book has been a fantastic resource for the elementary school counselor. I have used it in classroom guidance lessons and with individual students. The analogy of explaining anger like a bottle of pop is easy to understand and has been grasped by my students in kindergarten all the way to third grade. So many kids will come up to me in the halls and talk to me about this book or ask me to read it to them again!
