Max Cross doesn't like feeling angry. She wants to be kind and patient. But on her field trip everything is going wrong...she wanted to stay home but her parents made her go, and her classmates are so loud and annoying. It's all so unfair! It makes her want to SHOUT!Everyone gets angry and frustrated sometimes, but we don't have to let those challenging feelings overwhelm us. Follow Max's journey and learn how the brain gets stuck in anger, how normal that is, and what we can do about it. Based on the principles of acceptance and commitment therapy, this workbook is packed full of fun and engaging activities for children aged 8-12. It also includes a section for parents and caregivers with advice on how best to support your child.

Max Cross Gets Unstuck from Anger is a gift for kids and the adults who love them. In this playful, science-informed workbook, Christopher McCurry and Emma Waddington offer young readers a way to understand anger not as an enemy to be fought but as a signal-one that can guide them toward what truly matters. Using the adventures of Max, practical exercises, and a warm, inviting tone, this book teaches school age children how to notice their feelings and urges to respond, and then to pivot toward what they care about. It's Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) distilled into a form that is both engaging and profoundly useful. For any child who struggles with big feelings-and for any caregiver seeking a compassionate, evidence-based approach to support them-this book is a must.
