1.0 out of 5 stars Beware some graphic images not suitable for young or sensitive children, 18 Aug 2008
By MJ "maplejoint" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I bought this book for my first born four year old child who naturally ends up fighting occasionally with our younger two year old child. I wanted to use a book to explain that it is ok to get mad sometimes, but that there are other ways of solving arguments. This book actually goes beyone verbal fighting (which is what I thought this book was about, arguing, not physical violence). This book shows young children punching, shoving and kicking each other, children bullying and teasing others, scenes of distressed children crying, adults fighting (one of which is of two adults who have poured paint all over each other during a fight), children with bruises, frightened children, worried children and children being coaxed to physically fight with other children. The most distressing 2 pages I witnessed are about half way through the book and the illustrations teach children that sometimes adults fight wars with one another; I quickly stopped reading to my child when I saw the two pages of illustrations of children running for cover from war planes, with people trapped under rubble, with bombs exploding and fire everywhere; there were also scenes of children crying over gravestones, with devastated, broken homes nearby. As a parent, I was shocked to see these images, and unhappy that I had bought a book that depicts physical violence, including cartoon scenes of war, devestation and death within a book that I mistakenly purchased thinking it would teach verbal negotiation and kindness skills for youngsters. This book should have a PG rating, if there is such a thing for books, and there should have been a warning within the synopsis of this book. With my child starting school for the first time in a few weeks, I feel that showing cartoon scenes of physical violence, bullying and intimidation, war and death to her or any child could cause unnecessary distress.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, 13 Aug 2008
By S. D. Williams "shilo115" (North Wales, GB) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I am the mother of two high functioning autistic boys. It is hard to teach children with ASD social rules and this leads to a stressful existance for both parents and children alike.

This book was simple and clear with lovely pictures and my 9 year old son enjoyed listening to it and seemed to pick up the messages it was relaying in a much more effective way than being "told".

The reason I have given only 4 stars and not 5 is because some american terminology is used which is confusing to the narrator and the child especially when they have ASD. I also didn't like the "help" boxes featured on a couple of the pages which my son picked up on. I would like to think that parents who purchase/loan these types of books have the capability to do these "things" without prompting.

This really is a great book and I will be showing it to my support group "Talk 4 Talk" to possibly add to their library of books for parents/carers/children with speech, language and communication disorders.
