I am super excited about today’s post. Not only did my friend and fellow author Virginia Finnie agree to review my newest book, Teaching Christ’s Children About Feeling Angry, but she also tested the teacher’s guide I developed for it. So continue reading below to find out what Ms. Finnie has to say about using Teaching Christ’s Children about Feelings Angry to help children learn what the Bible says about feeling angry.
Mrs. Finnie's Review
Teaching Christ’s Children About Feeling Angry is a beautifully illustrated book for children and an excellent resource for teachers, counselors and parents to teach and counsel elementary age children about angry feelings. It explains in a way that children can easily understand that God gave us all of our feelings, including anger; therefore anger is not bad and has a purpose. Children learn how to recognize angry feelings and to understand the source of their anger. They learn strategies to control and express their angry feelings appropriately, as well as how to respond when someone is angry with
The main character, Tay is easy for children to relate to as she tells how she has felt anger and the consequences of expressing her anger in ways that are unacceptable. She then learns what the Bible has to say about anger, and she is given tools for controlling her anger. Scripture references are included throughout this biblically based book.
Using Teaching Christ's Children in the Classroom
As the children heard Tay’s story, they naturally wanted and needed to share their stories of times when they felt angry and what happened. It was important This is an important teaching for all children and I recommend it without reservation.

Fine review. Teaching children how to handle feelings of anger is very important today, since we have so many horrible examples of how people handle their anger feelings poorly.
