Martin, Mary. Princess Addison Gets Angry.


Martin, Mary.  Princess Addison Gets Angry.  Capstone/Picture Window    2013 unp  ISBN 978-1-4048-7851-8    pre K-elm   VG      Conflict   

In this charmingly illustrated book for young children, Addison learns to deal with her anger over a rainy day.  It is the perfect book for a parent or grandparent to read aloud to a young child (especially a little girl) on a rainy day.  The drawings are whimsical and amusing, full of imagination and good humor, and they help to underline the message that it is okay to have one’s feelings, as long as one doesn’t hurt anybody or break anything.  It ends on a hopeful note, with Addie looking forward to another day, one without rain.
