Princess Addison Gets Angry by Molly Martin

Princess Addison likes to take her dogs for a walk every morning where they dance by the fountain and pick flowers to take back to her room.  But today Addison is angry.  She is angry because it is raining and she can't do these things.  

Addison's mother tells her it is okay to be angry, but she is a Princess so she must not hit others or break anything.  Her mother gives her ways to calm down like taking a deep breath, talking things out with others, taking a walk, or reading a book.  Soon, Addison is not so angry anymore and is hopeful for the next day because it might not be raining tomorrow.

I like the message of this book and I really like that the author explained not only what NOT to do, but also what to do INSTEAD.  I think that part is left out a lot in teaching children.  It is important they know what action they can take in place of the one they should not.  

I recommend this cute little picture book.
