Ivy is angry: A children's book about managing and supporting the emotions like anger

A parent would reach for this book when their child is experiencing the prickly, explosive, or 'red' feelings that come with frustration and loss of control. It is a supportive tool for families navigating the transition from toddlerhood to the school years, where big emotions often outpace a child's vocabulary. The story follows a young girl named Ivy as she navigates common triggers that spark her temper, such as things not going her way or feeling unheard. It focuses on identifying the physical sensations of anger and offers concrete, gentle strategies for de-escalating. This is an ideal choice for parents who want to normalize anger as a valid emotion while modeling healthy boundaries and self-regulation techniques in a way that feels safe and non-judgmental.
