Molly Martin

Molly Martin has always envisioned herself as a princess. While she doesn't live in a castle or rule over a kingdom, she has made a magical life for herself in Minnesota. Molly enjoys writing on her front porch (which she pretends is a balcony) while sipping tea (okay, it's actually Diet Coke). When she needs extra inspiration, she pulls out her best tiara (which is actually a Minnesota Twins baseball cap) and magic wand (which is a fancy purple pen with a feather on it).

Reviews for Princess Addison Gets Angry

[kerrymarsh · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

A nice book to read to young children about staying calm when feeling angry. The brightly coloured pictures would please most children and certainly help keep their attention. I don't think the story goes far enough in terms of strategies as these ones are well known and useful when a child is frustrated, but less so when they are really angry. However, it certainly allows for discussion with children about other things they could do if angry or even the sorts of situations where they feel angry.

This is a wonderful and heartwarming tale to teach children how to control their anger. I loved it and so did my little princess.

Princess Addison’s Anger Bring Smiles to ReadersFrom her red frizzy hair and tiara, to her ballet shoes and tutu, the main character of Molly Martin’s book, Princess Addison, is a charmer. The princess herself, as is only fitting, will introduce young readers to the royal family. Following the introductions, readers are treated to her favorite things to do each day. This inclusion into her Royal Highness’s daily life leads into the reasoning behind the adjustments to her usual royal title. Children will easily empathize with the case of grumps the princess has managed to catch. Each reader will delight in this story of the Princess within every girl. It shows how the grumps can the better of us all at times. Adults taking a chance to bond with his or her child will appreciate the thoughtful way the princess’s feelings are addressed. Not only does this book show the great worth of open communication with children, but also exemplifies to children the appropriate way to deal with the emotions that a case of the grumps can stir up. Melanie Florian’s use of softened, yet vibrant, colors bring the height of whimsy to the life Martin has created in her book. While the book does feature a princess, and not a prince, it would be easy to utilize the book, and all the fun it holds, to discuss feelings of anger and how to deal with being displeased in appropriate manners for either girls or boys. One thing is for sure, when this book hits shelves it will find many happy homes, quickly.
