Did you know that anger is like fire? It starts with a spark, igniting us with energy and purpose. But it can also blaze out of control, causing lots of problems. If you're a kid whose temper quickly flares, a kid whose anger gets too big, too hot, too fast, this book is for you. What to Do When Your Temper Flares guides children and their parents through the cognitive-behavioral techniques used to treat problems with anger. Engaging examples, lively illustrations, and step-by-step instructions teach children a set of "anger dousing" methods aimed at cooling angry thoughts and controlling angry actions, resulting in calmer, more effective kids. This interactive self-help book is the complete resource for educating, motivating, and empowering children to work toward change.

Summary: Good for eight-year-olds
Comment: My 8-year-old daughter who has a very quick temper loved this book right away. She usually doesn't go for books that I want her to read because it will "help" her with something. But this one was different. She really liked it because she could write in it and draw pictures. She isn't really a reader but went 3/4's of the way through it the first time.
I think it has helped somewhat with her anger, but we are still working on it.It is a good step in the right direction.

Summary: She Really Likes This Book
Comment: My daughter is nine years old and she really likes this book. I placed it in her room, I hadn't told her I had ordered this for her, but she found it and has read quite a bit of it already. She can't say why she likes it, but she does.

Summary: My 9 year old refers to it regularly
Comment: At first my son was really angry that he got this book. He threw it on the floor and walked away! When I finally got him to look at it with me I let him treat it as a workbook. After all, it has spaces for writing and drawing. I also gave him a highlighter and told him to mark things that seemed important. Doing this gave him a sense of ownership and helped him connect with the ideas. It also helps that the material is presented in a way that he could relate to, with lots of questions and fun language. While this book hasn't been a cure-all, it has helped him tremendously. Six months later, he still reads it and talks about (and uses!) the strategies he learned.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great cognitive therapy based book
Comment: Just from the intro. written to the parents, I was impressed. It made me feel more at ease about some of my son's issues. I am a former school counselor and I thought the layout of the book was great and it kept my 6 year old's attention (we would do a chapter a night each night before nights out). It gives some great concepts that plant seeds in a child's mind about what is going on when they get angry - even if they can't immediately put them to use. This is a wonderful series - we have tried three of the books.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great way to approach the subject with my son
Comment: My son was showing a lot of anger, and didn't want to talk about it. This book was a great way to approach the subject during a non-angry time. It's very helpful to get a third party involved so remotely. The book was written well for his age - some humor, comic book type pictures, and some ideas that my 8 year old found to be helpful.
