Abstract

In this paper, the use of bibliotherapy with children's books to deal with anger management is explored. Six children's books were read and analyzed in terms of the ways their characters dealt with feelings of anger and conflict, with the situations in which they found themselves, and with other characters. Recommendations are offered for teachers and other adults who may wish to use these or similar books in working with children who are experiencing anger-provoking situations.
