This book is divided into two parts. The first explores the theory around anger, with chapters on understanding anger; why games are used to support healthy anger management; structuring the emotional environment when a child is already angry, and self-reflection and self-care for workers.
I really enjoyed the common sense approach the author uses in this section. She explains anger as a normal, healthy human emotion, and clearly describes the chemistry involved in experiencing and expressing anger. The author then provides a link to the second section of the book, explaining how the use of games with children gives them a way of learning that is natural to their stage of development.
