Full of action and vibrancy... A good way to soothe bad days away. School Library Journal

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, they COULD but they DON'T, because REAL superheroes just WOULDN'T—they WON'T!

All kids 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 dynamite 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 has plenty of fun ideas to help kids cope when they're feeling overwhelmed.
