Even Superheroes Have Bad Days

When Superheroes don't get their way, when they're sad, when they're mad, when they've had a bad day...they COULD super-tantrum, then COULD but they DON'T, because REAL Superheroes just WOULDN'T-they WON'T!

All kinds have trouble getting a grip on their emotions, sometimes-even young superheroes! But what do they do when they're having a bad day? Colourful action-packed illustrations and a dynamic rhyming text reveal the many ways superheroes (and ordinary children, too) can resist the super-temptation to cause a scene when they're sad, mad, frustrated, lonely, or afraid. From burning off steam on a bike or a hike, to helping others, this energetic picture book of fun ideas to help kids cope when they're feeling overwhelmed.
