Text and Images from Angry Akku – Children’s Story about Handling Emotions
When the last school bell rang, all the children laughed and screamed with joy.
All, except Akku. Akku was ANGRY!
“Akku! Akku! Look at the pretty sunflowers!”
said Appa, as they rode through a field.
“GRRMPH! They’re TOO YELLOW!
They’re making my eyes hurt!” said Akku.

2. Slowly – very, very slowly – breathe in, and breathe out!
3. Drink some water! Or buttermilk!

5. Tell a grown-up about how you’re feeling!
6. Write about how you’re feeling!
7. Draw it out! Paint it!
8. Play with a pile of clay!
9. Make up a song about your anger! Sing it aloud! 10. Dance like a monkey!
