From School Library Journal POPGr 1–3—Bang and her eponymous character have guided children through the emotional ups and downs of When Sophie Gets Angry—Really, Really Angry and When Sophie's Feelings Are Really, Really Hurt, now address frustration and feelings of inadequacy when the child is unable to complete a tangram puzzle at home, then a math challenge at school. However, under the guidance of a teacher with a positive, can-do attitude who encourages her students to try harder and use the word "yet" when faced with a difficult challenge (as in, "I haven't solved it yet"), Sophie and classmates are introduced to a growth mind-set approach to problem solving. Readers and listeners can attempt to try the puzzle on their own ("build a bigger rectangle out of twelve small squares"), and will observe that there is more than one way to solve this particular challenge (and perhaps others) as evidenced in the story. As in other titles by this author/illustrator, vibrant colors form the backdrop of many spreads and the figures, outlined in these yellow, red, or green, radiate energy and emotion. An author's note discusses the book's origin and explains the difference between "fixed" and "growth" mind-sets. Endpapers include a picture of a tangram and a definition, and some of the animal shapes said to have been created "from traditional tangram puzzle pieces." VERDICT While purposeful, this book belongs on classroom and school library shelves and should be shared, especially with children who are easily frustrated.—Daryl Grabarek, School Library Journal Read more Review "Sure to be a staple in classrooms everywhere." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for When Sophie's Feelings Are Really, Really Hurt: * "Bang's thickly painted images exude energy and feeling, both in the children's expressions and through the exaggerated dimensions, angles, and colors. It's another lovely study in emotion from Bang and a thoughtful exploration of art-making." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "All libraries will want this bold offering for lessons on classroom manners, art, and individuality." -- School Library Journal Praise for When Sophie Gets Angry--Really, Really Angry... Caldecott Honor Book Jane Addams Honor Book ALA Notable Book Charlotte Zolotow Award "Bang's evocatively illustrated book suggests no quick fixes; she treats childhood emotions with respect." -- Publishers Weekly "Bang captures the intensity of Sophie's feelings with strong, broadly brushed forms and colors....Sophie finds a way to cope with her anger, quite laudably, without a helping adult hand." -- Kirkus Reviews "Bang's double-page illustrations, vibrating with saturated colors...reveal the drama of the child's emotions."-- School Library Journal, starred review "An elegant and thought-provoking book for...children learning how to deal with emotions." -- New York Times Book Review Read more See all Editorial Reviews
