PSBig Kid Power series.
Direct-address text describes the protagonist's journey from tantrum-thrower ("I screamed...I pounded on the floor") to "BIG KID!" ("When I'm upset, I take a little break..."). Simple digital illustrations in a limited palette plus thick black lines and white outlines keep focus on the narrator. The book's petite, square shape and sturdy binding are well designed for little hands.
