Barbara Throws a Wobbler

Fergal is Fuming!

Robert Starling - 2018

A dragon with a short temper is not a good combination, as Fergal's family and friends soon find out. He burns the dinner (literally), reduces the football goal to ashes and absolutely cannot play a nice, quiet board game.
It is only when he starts to notice other animals have clever tricks to calm down that Fergal begins to win back his friends.

Grumpy Frog

Ed Vere - 2017

Grumpy Frog is not grumpy. He loves green, and he loves to hop, and he loves winning. But what happens when Grumpy Frog doesn't win, or encounters - horror of horrors - a Pink Rabbit? Join Grumpy Frog as he learns about compromise and tolerance, friendship and the power of saying sorry.

I Am Angry

Michael Rosen - 2022

This kitten may look cute and cuddly, but better beware: they're angry. Really angry. Angry, angry, angry! And this isn't any old 'angry'. This is a jump-up-and-down, roll-on-the-ground kind of angry. This is a spider-scaring, tiger-scaring kind of angry. This is a burst-balloon-ing, SQUASH-THE-MOON-ING kind of angry. As surreal as things may get, this is also the kind of angry that parents of toddlers will recognize - a bad mood which comes out of nowhere, escalates wildly, then disappears as suddenly as it arrived.

No!

Tracey Corderoy and Tim Warnes - 2013

A hilarious tale that's perfect for parents whose toddler may be over-using the word 'no!' and finding themselves suddenly tackling tantrums. The cheeky, charming Archie will win the hearts of children and parents alike.

Pom Pom Gets the Grumps

Sophy Henn - 2015

In a fresh and funny new take on toddler tantrums, this book introduces Sophy Henn's new character, Pom Pom Panda. When he wakes up in a BAD mood one morning, nothing is right. And then things go from bad to worse.

Ravi's Roar

Tom Percival - 2019

Most of the time Ravi can control his temper but, one day, he lets out the tiger within. Being a tiger is great fun at first - tigers can do ANYTHING they want! But who wants to play with a growling, roaring, noisy, wild tiger who won't share or play nicely? Ravi is about to discover something very important about expressing his feelings and making amends.
