This book will delight children and, perhaps, restore a bit of parental sanity after a long day with a cranky kid. Mr. Ering's sweet image of smiling Finn transitions quickly into a simmering, smoldering toddler. Then the storm arrives in full force causing mom and dad to take refuge. Easy to laugh at after a long day for child and parent alike.
The plot is easily understood by younger children and within reach of early readers. Dynamic illustrations support the plot to perfection.
In between the giggling is the chance for readers to acknowledge that mommies, daddies and kids have bad days and that they do pass. Finn Throws a Fit is a good bedtime read.
