'Hi I'm Felix! I'm a little ant whose antennae fire up! I am a great guy but I guess you could say that I am 'quick to anger'. I really enjoy spending time with my friends and I usually get along with others. I don't want to lose my temper; it's just that I have trouble controlling myself when I get mad. When I am teased, when I lose a game, or when I am asked to stop doing something I like doing, I fire up! When this happens I might hurt others with my words or actions. I don't always stop to think about the consequences or how my actions affect others, I just act! Because of my quick explosive reactions, others might avoid me or 'push my buttons'. The social world can be a difficult place for some children as their fiery reactions often attract negative attention. The story, Seeing Red, can help children learn how to take control of anger and feel good again.' (Publication summary)
