Of Course it’s a Big Deal: A Story About Learning to React Appropriately

Braden is super excited to go to the Fun Zone with his brother and parents. He knows what he wants - to drive the go-carts for the first time ever! When he arrives, he learns he doesn’t meet the height requirement. He tries to get his mum to intervene, but she refuses because a rule is a rule. And when the guy behind the track tells him it’s not that big of a deal because he can ride with a parent, Braden loses his temper and shouts It IS a big deal! I hate this place!
Braden’s mum helps him realise that throwing a temper tantrum doesn’t help anyone. She teaches him the steps for calming down so he can think of a way to make the situation better. Can Braden do as his mum suggests? Find out in this third book in the Executive Function series.
