Become a Master of Self-Control: Meet Melly, Her Color is Mad is the first workbook in the "Become a Master of Self- Control" series, developed by Camp MakeBelieve tm

Melly is an amazing little girl. She's lots of fun and creative — when she's not getting into trouble! She dreams of having friends, getting along with her family, and most of all ... staying out of the principal's office. Most mornings, Melly and her family wake up hoping "today's going to be a better day." But something almost always happens to ruin it. Usually, her mood. Melly gets sulky or mad when things don't go exactly her way. Even Melly's best friend, her parrot named Mr. Feathers, has just about had it with Melly — not to mention her friends, when she ruined her own party — and her classmates, when she ripped the beak off a clay bird. Mad Mad Mad... and turning her world upside down! That was Melly, until...

Follow Melly's adventures with your child in this innovative workbook that charms, delights — and teaches the essentials of Becoming a Master of Self-Control through specifically designed strategies you can use to help your child identify and manage moods, especially anger — over time, and on-the-spot.

Unlike most, if not all other children's series, this workbook blends theory with hands- on, practical tips. In addition to the story, workbooks contain a number of unique features!

Talking Points - topics for story discussion

Tool-Box - every parent's emotional ER kit, it is chock full of hands-on ideas, tools and tips adults may use with children under calm conditions — and most particularly when they are starting to ‘rev up’ or lose control.

Activities - which include:

Objectives: what you hope to achieve with your child through the activity.
Home Use Instructions: what to tell your child, written in script format to give you simple and positive language your child will respond to and understand.
Long-Term Strategies: includes maps, graphs and charts to make change last.
Red-Alert Strategies: instant diversion tactics you can use on the spot when your child is revving up or out-of-control.
Play Pages: simple and fun activities your child can do on his own to even further excite his imagination.
*Group Use Instructions – specific strategies adapted for teachers, counselors and adults dealing with children in a group situation.
