The Anger Volcano – A Book About Anger For Kids

“A great, rhyming book for young children about how to deal with anger.”  Biblio Filer (5 out of 5 stars)

“A clever book that uses verses and illustrations. Enjoyable for children and as an example of quality illustrations.   The poetic text can also stand on its own.”  JD DeHart (5 out of 5 stars)

This book “is for children aged 4-10 who have difficulty controlling their temper, with the idea that the rhymes used can be memorable for children and may cause them to stop and think before their anger ‘explodes’.   I think the idea behind this book is great, and the rhymes are nice and simple and very catchy.   [It] can be coloured in and therefore may make a good distraction aid for children in times of anger and outbursts…”  Laura Hainsworth (4 out of 5 stars)

Amanda Greenslade is an Australian writer and a parent who has worked with children in the syndrome mix of ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder – Asperger’s and Sensory Processing Disorder (Sensory Integration Dysfunction).   Her interaction with family counselors, psychologists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, inclusive education specialists and special needs teachers revealed that there was not a resource **for children** about the anger volcano concept.   She created ‘The Anger Volcano’, a book for children who need some help managing their frustration and anger.
