Take a Breath, Big Red Monster!

Big Red Monster is angry! Turning the pages reveals colorful illustrations of different parts of the cranky creature's face—from two mean green eyes to a big thundery loud mouth—as he gets increasingly upset. We can help him calm down by taking deep breaths—in and out—until even his yellow-and-orange firecracker hair disappears.
