Publisher's Summary
The friendly fish from Some Parts Are Not for Sharing are back in Anger Is Okay Violence Is Not. This book describes domestic violence to young children and offers hope. Children are taught healthy ways to get anger out of their bodies and what to do when they witness adults getting anger out of their body in an unhealthy way. Julie has again taken a complex social problem and broken it down into the language of children.
Julie Federico is a former middle school counselor. She holds a bachelor’s degree in social work and a master’s degree in counseling and educational psychology from Indiana University. Her first book, Some Parts Are Not for Sharing, is a child’s first book on body safety.
Far too many children are living in homes where there is domestic violence. Julie Federico's book Anger Is Okay Violence Is Not contains a lesson that all children should learn. We all feel anger, but that there are healthy ways to let the anger out. Hurting people when you are angry and domestic violence is not okay. I highly recommend this book to parents, teachers, and mental health workers and agencies.
"Anger is OKAY, Violence is NOT, written by Julie Federico and illustrated by Glori Alexander, is a thoughtful, much-needed addition to pre-school teachers' and social workers' libraries. With vibrant, TV-cartoon-like illustrations and simple, direct text appropriate for even the youngest children, this picture book explores the complexity and vitality of anger, and when it is appropriately expressed and when it is not. True emotional intelligence is something recognized and respected but rarely taught and discussed, even among adults. The goal of this worthy project is to engage children in a safe, non-threatening exploration of complicated, often-frightening feelings." (Blue Ink Review)
