Sometimes I’m Bombaloo

您家的小朋友有情緒失控的問題嗎？還是有時會突然覺得情緒低落呢？有時候他們會不會覺得自己根本不像自己，變成另外一個人了！

書裡面的主人翁Katie也有相同的問題。她平常是一個甜美可愛又愛笑的小孩，會把環境整理地很乾淨，會陪弟弟玩積木，在用餐時也都一定使用餐巾，讓自己看起來清潔整齊。但是有時候聽話可人Katie，會變成可怕的Bombaloo。

Bombaloo有張猙獰的臉孔，會對弟弟拳腳相向，會把玩具亂丟，會對大家大吼大叫。當她從Bombaloo變回了Katie以後，她溫柔的媽媽會抱著她，聽她說話，幫她把丟到地上的玩具收拾整齊。最重要的是，Katie的媽媽會告訴她不需害怕，不管她是Katie也好，是Bombaloo也好，媽媽都一樣會愛她。這是一本有關小朋友們情緒管理問題的繪本，讓爸爸媽媽可以了解大多數的小朋友也都會有類似的問題，以及遇到類似狀況時，該如何面對及處理，並提供孩子們最需要的鼓勵和支持。

A tender story that explores BIG feelings and includes a wise take on tantrums and learning how to feel like yourself again!

Katie Honors is a really good kid -- most of the time. But sometimes... well, sometimes, say when her little brother knocks down her beautiful castle after she told him not to touch it and she knows she’ll never be able to make it look that good again... sometimes Katie gets so mad she’s BOMBALOO, she’s just not herself. Sometimes she uses her feet and her fists instead of words.

Being Bombaloo is scary. But a little time-out and a lot of love and understanding from Mom calms Bombaloo down and help Katie feel like Katie again! This is a warm book about losing your temper and how to feel like yourself again. With Yumi Heo’s bright illustrations and Rachel Vail’s sweet text, this title is the perfect read aloud for librarians, teachers, and parents.
