Miss Val (St. Cloud)
I like using this book but I do add additional visuals related to the numbers .... like the image of a thermometer.
Pretty Helpful March 28, 2010
Tamara M. Masters (Hampton, VA United States)
Good for preschoolers, early elementary age kids, and those with Aspergers or Autism spectrum. Otherwise this book would be too simplistic. I liked how this helps kids to scale their own feelings and care for them before an explosion occurs. It is even helpful that there is a stress scale to increase self awareness and a ways to calm down to increase self regulation.
Useful tool March 22, 2010
D. Cunningham (MI, USA)
I have used this book a couple of times already. I was able to make copies of the illustrations so that the consumer can write and draw along with the book without coloring in the book. This allows them to keep a copy of their own work and practice the technique with family. It helps teach about stress levels and identifying triggers.
Excellent Book for Kids February 2, 2010
Karis Williams (Vermont, USA)
My 10 year old son suffers from anxiety and this book has been an excellent help to him. He carries this book with him every where he goes and uses it as necessary to remind himself what to do when his anxiety is overwhelming! I would recommend this book to everyone who suffers from anxiety, even adults!
Giving Children Strategies October 14, 2009

4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this for my 5-year-old son, and I thought he would throw it across the room, because he often rejects my attempts at "talking through" his anger. But he was fascinated and seemed quite relieved to have been given a strategy to help himself. He often speaks in terms of feeling like a "5" or a "3". It is, for me, a helpful context for understanding his moods. That night, after we first worked through the book, he wrote me a picture and a card saying, "Thank you, Mama. I love the book." I am now about to check out some of the other books by this author. Although these books are published by the "autism- asberger" society, or some such organization, I think it is invaluable for any child who struggles with feelings that feel too big...
