Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
This Makes Me Angry
Courtney Carbone · 2022
67/100
👎 Skip It
A competent Step 2 early reader that gives young kids a concrete, drawable tool for dealing with anger — relatable sibling scenario and all. It does what it promises without much flair, and no professional reviews have weighed in to push it higher. A fine classroom read-aloud but not a standout on a crowded shelf.
