"After causing a small fire in his science class during an
emotional meltdown, [Ernie] is sent to the school counselor, who
offers him--and readers--not only some specific, useful strategies
for controlling anger as it emerges, but also advice on 'unloading
your emotional load, ' in order to live more calmly. These ideas
are far more comprehensive than the usual 'take a deep breath and
count to 10' advice and include opportunities for practice during
calmer times."--Kirkus Reviews
