Book Reviews of Angry Octopus: A Relaxation Story
Book Review: Great for Girl Scout Daisy Petals
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fantastic! I used it with my Girl Scout Daisy troop to help earn the petal "Responsible for what I say and do". We read this book and talked about how the Octopus handled his anger. Then the girls each made a puppet. Then we paired the girls up in twos or threes, and we then had each group act out a challenging scenario with their puppets, such as what the puppet would do if someone scribbled on their drawing or would not share. The girls used the techniques of the Angry Octopus themselves and through the puppets. The girls loved the story, and even brought up the story and its principles in relevant conversations week after week.
Most (if not all) children are faced with challenging scenarios that test their emotions, and this book provides tools and a methods to help them respond in a responsible manner. I highly recommend it!
