Finally she decides to make her own breakfast, picking up the heavy milk carton and - OH NO - spilling the milk all over the table and the floor! Mum gets really angry and shouts at Ellie - Ellie feels all wobbly and her chest is banging - will Ellie Jelly and Mum ever be friends again? This book will helps children aged 3-7 to understand why parents sometimes get angry, and that they don't always mean what they mean when they are cross. Ellie's mum loves her more than the whole wide world.
Ellie Jelly and the Massive Mum Meltdown gives an honest insight into the 'real life' bad days that grown-ups sometimes have-- Fi Star-Stone, Parenting expert and Author
This is a lovely book which tells the story of how one mum loses her temper, then attempts to put it right, by admitting she got it wrong and saying sorry. This book can help young children realise that adults may shout, but they can also apologise, and help children understand how much they're loved. -- Elizabeth O’Shea, Parenting specialist, and founder of Parent 4 Success.
