Fergal has a fiery temper that unleashes itself in a rather physical manner. He's soon left with some less-than-happy friends after his anger quite literally burns them (or rather their personal possessions). But his family teaches him some helpful cooping mechanisms for dealing with his emotions when they run too hot. This is a great book for your little ones who are prone to temper tantrums and destructive behavior.

3.0
This was an interesting picture book. I think it is one that I will read with my little girl when she gets to be toddler age. It speaks very well to managing emotions especially anger. I loved that Fergal's mother gave him a counting tool to manage how angry he was getting. I also enjoyed the fact that the book addressed the idea that a temper/anger issue can potentially drive people away. Artwork was cute!
