Summary
Sometimes I Am Furious is a hilarious and reassuring story about how tough it can be being – and having – a toddler, from bestselling duo Timothy Knapman and Joe Berger.
Life is all fun and games when everything's going your way. But some days, suddenly, something becomes horribly UNFAIR. A melting ice cream, a too-tight t-shirt, a boy who doesn't share... it's enough to make you FURIOUS. But, as this little girl discovers, it's nothing that a deep breath, a happy song and a good cuddle can't sort out.
A funny, friendly and relatable book for young children (and their parents) about emotions and how to handle them.
