Thank you to Gema Romero of AmeriCorps for reading this story during the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service in January!
In this rhyming story, Jackson gets upset and doesn't understand how his emotions are controlling his behavior. Through colorful illustrations and rhythmic rhymes, he learns coping mechanisms on how to deal with big emotions like anger.
The Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service is a defining moment each year when Americans across the country step up to make our communities more equitable and take action to create the Beloved Community of Dr. King’s dream.
