The first in a funny new series from former Children's Laureate Michael Rosen and rising star Robert Starling for younger children.

This kitten may look cute and cuddly, but better beware: they're angry. Really angry. Angry, angry, angry! And this isn't any old "angry". This is a jump-up-and-down, roll-on-the-ground kind of angry. This is a spider-scaring, tiger-scaring kind of angry. This is a burst-balloon-ing, SQUASH-THE-MOON-ING kind of angry...

As surreal as things may get, this is also the kind of angry that parents of toddlers will recognize – a bad mood which comes out of nowhere, escalates wildly, then disappears as suddenly as it arrived. Based on the popular poem from A Great Big Cuddle, I Am Angry combines Michael Rosen's brilliant rhymes and anarchic imagination, Robert Starling's perfect knack for character and a reassuring message: anger may feel overpowering, but it doesn't last for ever.

MEDIA REVIEWS

Featured in The Bookseller July Previews. - Fiona Noble, The Bookseller

An affectionate picture book account of a small person’s enormous rage - Imogen Russell Williams, Guardian

llustrations are vital to the success of picture books, and Robert Starling’s work beautifully with the text. They are dynamic and energetic, with plenty of white space ensuring that Michael Rosen’s words stand out as part of the overall design. The text is rhythmic and energetic, [...] This would be a wonderful book to read to a Reception class to support a discussion about emotions as part of a PSED lesson, [...] Highly recommended. - Ali Baker, Just Imagine

“I can honestly say that I giggled more than once”

If you have a young child or have dealt with a young child who at some point (most likely more then once), and for no apparent reason, has started having a tantrum then this book will be familiar to you.

“Made me laugh. Just like you want to but know you shouldn't.”

I love this book. It is eye catching in that it is bright red with a big grumpy cat on the front.

Full of rhyme but few words with amazing pictures it captures the feelings of a child in a tantrum.

They will bully... More
