I like the Warning: at the top of the premise that author gives, just look above it's funny for adults..Yet, this is one of the best stories that I have come across to help teach your child to control anger issues....That if parents don't start at a young age can lead to all types of trouble and even "bullying" in the future...You almost get to see a type of example in this tale...In fact, at the end of this book the author has an entire "emotional series" listed for parents if they are having problems..They teach your child "coping mechanisms" with all separate emotions they will start to experience through each developmental stage....Andy is good boy so far, but when he doesn't get his way his temper acts up...He becomes so angry, red in the face and stomps off to his room..(Sound familiar)..It overcomes him so he isn't even listening to the real reason or anything is Mom says..He demands to watch a TV program, "The Crocodile's Lair", which is intended for a mature audience and Mom feels it's too violent..She uses the method of sitting for a minute, deep breathing and counting to 1-10..He is already in his bedroom throwing and kicking things around..Eventually, from exhaustion he will fall asleep and have a very strange dream with coming face to face with that dangerous "Crocrodile"...You will have to read and find out the secret..This will engage and hold your child's attention just looking at the mean "Crocodile"..Will Mom be there to save the day..
