Through Tammy's journey, children learn that while everyone has bad moods, our reactions to those moods have real consequences on our friendships and our own happiness. Aimed at children ages 4 to 8, this book uses a relatable animal protagonist to bridge the gap between feeling an emotion and choosing a behavior. It serves as a gentle opening for parents to discuss mindfulness and the power of hitting the reset button on a bad day.
