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. This book is part of the Magination Press What-to-Do Guides for Kids series and includes an “Introduction to Parents and Caregivers.” What-to-Do Guides for Kids are interactive self-help books designed to guide 6–12 year olds and their parents through the cognitive-behavioral techniques most often used in the treatment of various psychological concerns. Engaging, encouraging, and easy to follow, these books educate, motivate, and empower children to work towards change. Review: Has transformed our homelife - This book is amazing! I am admittedly dubious of self help books in general but bought this when other methods of improving the anger response of two my children continued to fail. We have been using this book as a family with all of our children because let's be honest, we all can use improvement in how we cope with our anger. The language of this book is humorous and easy to understand. We are using it with children that range in age from 6-11 and all are enjoying it. I love that the book helps children to not feel bad for feeling angry, there is no shaming. Instead it focuses on how we manage and respond to our anger rather than teaching that we should not feel anger. The explanations of anger that begin the book lay an excellent foundation for kids to be able to identify their emotion in preparation to begin implementing the specific strategies discussed later in the book. The strategies are easy for kids to use and effective! I would recommend working through the strategies slowly. After reading a chapter we focus on implementing the tool for several days or even a week or two until my kids have really gotten the hang of it and can use it on their own without prompting. Then we move on and learn and use another tool. This book has helped my entire family and our home life is much more peaceful. Not only are my children managing their anger better but their self confidence and pride has soared as they see that they can manage their emotions well. Review: Excellent book for everyone. Not just "hot tempered" kids. - As a parent, this book has given me some concrete tools to work through frustration points with my kids. Around our house, now we talk about what our "hot thoughts" are and what we can say instead as our "cool thoughts." It has totally influenced how we respond to situations. Please forgive me if this sounds a bit cheesy, but the techniques work. Not just for kids but adults, too. The author explains things in a simple, yet honest way and it makes sense. Somehow, this book worked for us and I believe you will find something useful from it. My daughter (age 7, 1st grade) really wanted to read this book in one setting. And, she is a great kid by all reports from her teachers (and us). :-) It's just that this book helps all kids, with any coping ability. On a scale with 1 being no coping skills, to a 10 being perfect, this book will move any kid up by at least one point... if not several points. If your kid is already at a 10... maybe you just need the book on anxiety. ha, ha just kidding This is a great book and I recommend getting it. [...].

Thank you ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spot On! *by K***Y on January 15, 2010* I've never bothered to write a book review before, but this book promises to be a life changer. I hope others will find it as useful as my daughter and I already have. Dawn Huebner and Bonnie Matthews are spot-on with their examples and illustrations depicting our personal situation. It's almost as if they've been peeking through our windows. Like some of the other reviewers, my daughter pitched the book across the room as soon as I showed it to her, but when I called her bluff and made a move to trash it, she quickly back-pedaled and assured me that she wanted to get better. Once we started working through it, she would take a mocking tone and say something to imply that the author didn't know HER and the very next sentence would speak to her grumble. Dawn nailed it every time and the illustrations were strikingly familiar as well. The book's credibility has risen to a surprising level, though she will never acknowledge it. The workbook style with humor sprinkled throughout has made the book much more fun for both of us. She likes writing in the book since that is usually considered "bad" behavior. I have two favorite parts. The first is a list in Ch. 3 of "why bothers" that include such gems as "Has anyone ever said, 'I want to be your friend because you are so good at losing your temper'" and "Have you ever fallen asleep with a smile on your face, thinking about all the times you got mad that day?". The second is a caution to parents not to provide the "cool thoughts" for the child as that will only infuriate her more. I've experienced that response many times in the past and now know that it is typical and not unexpected. I do suggest following the method outlined by the author for best results. My daughter and I are simultaneously working on the Dreading Your Bed book to undo 5 months of problems after she saw part of zombie movie at a neighbor's house. It has been equally good, but different enough to keep it fun. We will start the Grumbling book next. If you have a child with a short fuse, get this book - you won't regret it. ## Frequently Bought Together - What to Do When Your Temper Flares: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Problems with Anger - What to Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety - What to Do When You Grumble Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Negativity --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2381797-what-to-do-when-your-temper-flares-a-kids-guide](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2381797-what-to-do-when-your-temper-flares-a-kids-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-06-16*
