Sometimes I'm Bombaloo

By Rachel Vail
Most of the time Katie Honors is a good kid. But sometimes, when her baby brother has knocked over one too many of her beautiful castles, Katie becomes Bombaloo. She uses her fists and feet instead of her words. Her toys "end up all over the floor--and so does my brother." It takes some alone time, a lot of parental understanding, and a silly episode with flying underwear to calm Bombaloo down again and return her to her happy Katie Honors state.

A great book for prompting conversations about good and bad emotions that we all have. "Bombaloo" receives a timeout, but also lots of love from Mom.
