by Mike J. Masse
Illustrated by Emily Corbett
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Children’s, Picture Book, Contemporary

BLURB:
Children can develop the ability to respond to their emotions in a healthy way through the practice of mindfulness. Andy Gets Angry is a great introduction for children to learn a fun and simple breath technique to respond to their emotions. The beautifully hand-painted illustrations provide the perfect landscape to tell the story of Andy and his journey in learning the wonderful skill of mindfulness. Share the book with your loved ones, and help us all plant the seed to be present!

EXCERPT TWO:
Sometimes Andy gets angry when he loses. Sometimes he gets so angry in class when he doesn’t know the answer to a question.
Sometimes Andy gets angry when Bobby takes his toys … or when Sierra won’t stop singing!
Sometimes he gets angry when his parents raise their voices.

GUEST POST:
Describe Your Book Cover and How It Came About
Originally I wanted to do cartoon images with Andy Gets Angry, but then my friend (and artist) suggested painting the images on canvas. I am very fortunate that Emily agreed to create 26 beautiful paintings to illustrate the story of Andy. For the cover painting, both Emily and I wanted a picture of Andy getting….you guessed it ANGRY. From day one I have had this image in my mind of Andy angry, with steam coming out of his ears, and his body looking tight and tense. Another fun fact, my son Beau was used as the model for Andy.

ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting book.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a wonderful book for my grandchildren. The 2 boys have such a hard time with anger, and anything than can explain those feelings is great.
