<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Anger is OKAY Violence is NOT is a book for children struggling with tantrums.children who are living with domestic violence and involved with child protective services. My goal is to educate children about what is violence and how to report it. This book is for readers 0-8 years old.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Anger is OKAY, Violence is NOT</em>, written by Julie Federico and illustrated by Glori Alexander, is a thoughtful, much-needed addition to pre-school teachers' and social workers' libraries. With vibrant, TV-cartoon-like illustrations and simple, direct text appropriate for even the youngest children, this picture book explores the complexity and vitality of anger, and when it is appropriately expressed and when it is not.</p><p>True emotional intelligence is something recognized and respected but rarely taught and discussed, even among adults. The goal of this worthy project is to engage children in a safe, non-threatening exploration of complicated, often-frightening feelings. Federico lets kids know that anger is normal, though managing its expression can be complicated.</p><p>Clear language and child-friendly art invite a direct, straightforward examination of when anger is appropriate and how to safely express it through art, physical activity, tears. What's not OK is hitting, biting, throwing and hurting. The book gently and clearly reminds its vulnerable audience that adults can find the journey just as tricky as children do. If an adult hurts a child or someone they love, Federico instructs her young readers that telling a trusted adult is a safe and right action for them to take.</p><p>Needless to say, this is complex emotional territory, and Federico's tone is perfect: even, loving, simple, clear. Educators and caregivers may well find this a helpful tool in eliciting important conversations, and the book includes contact information for The National Domestic Violence Hotline and other respected sources of support.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br></em>Verified Purchase</p><p>I am a Reading teacher that often teaches preschoolers Social Emotional Learning.

I will be using this with all of my reading classes because this book helps children to understand their anger and use effective ways to control as well as express it.</p><br><br></em>Verified Purchase</p><p>This is a perfect book for small children who have witnessed domestic violence or struggle with angry/aggressive behaviors. I am a children's therapist and I always find that children would rather read about a story about an animal rather than a human any day! The book is small and the illustrations are vibrant.
