About this title

Review:

Starving the Anger Gremlin does an excellent job of examining the harmful effects of anger. Kate Collins-Donnelly clearly explains how irrational thoughts influence negative emotions such as anger. She also helps readers understand how they can change their reactions to events by changing their thinking. Starving the Anger Gremlin is a well-constructed manual on anger management that will undoubtedly help children and adolescents. Read it and enjoy! -- Jerry Wilde, Ph.D., author of Hot Stuff to Help Kids Chill Out: The Anger Management Book -- --Jerry Wilde, Ph.D., author of Hot Stuff to Help Kids Chill Out: The Anger Management Book
