Barbara Throws a Wobbler Summary

Barbara Throws a Wobbler by Nadia Shireen

Barbara is in a very bad mood. She won't admit it, but she is.

She has a problem with a sock, and at lunchtime there's a strange pea... And even though she's at the park with her friends, it all just gets a bit much. Suddenly Barbara's WOBBLER is out of control!

But what if Barbara and her Wobbler can work together, so she can be cheerful again?

A brilliantly funny and sensitive way to understand and deal with tantrums.

These are the most brilliant, beautiful and silly picture-books out there at the moment. Little doorways of joy. Caitlin Moran

Just the picture book to use if you have ever witnessed a small person's meltdown... A fun way to learn about feelings * Sunday Times *
Top talent Nadia Shireen really understands what makes little children tick, and Barbara Throws a Wobbler gently nudges them to explore their tricky emotions ... If only real-life tantrums were equally hilarious. * Guardian *
