While swimming nearby soon after, Karlson was examining a pile of crab shells when he felt a whipping sensation across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. Using this book as an education tool is a great way to teach young readers how to maintain control of themselves when their feelings get too big. Crazy octopus is not just a simple ocean adventure game, but a game of tactics, puzzle and a lot of freedom. The pain went away and more than anything since then, it’s been more the physical hit that was painful… The imprint on my neck in those photos is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took 20 minutes earlier of that lashing out,” he said.

This is a great little story to help small kids understand that they are in control of their emotions.It focuses on the ownership of feelings and emotions and taking command of the situation, instead of letting things "happen" to you. Considered by biologists to be some of the most intelligent invertebrates, octopuses are normally playful and inquisitive. On March 18, 34-year-old Lance Karlson was walking on the beach and looking for somewhere to swim with his two-year-old daughter in Geographe Bay, a popular snorkeling spot about 140 miles south of Perth, when he saw what he thought was a stingray leap from the water. This engaging story quiets the mind and relaxes the body so your child can let go of anger and fall asleep peacefully.

Geologist and author Lance Karlson was attacked by an octopus in Geographe Bay in Western Australia on March 18. However, I did not think the pictures or story were anything special but it did get its lesson across on how to deal with anger.Knockoff of a windows game that shudders to a stop every few seconds trying to load ads between every transition. Children relate to the angry octopus in this beautifully illustrated book as the sea child shows him how to manage his anger, remain calm and see things more clearly.

Each step is explained with the same story telling flow and does invite readers to join in, not directly but they will want to. I highly recommend picking up this book for our kids, classes, or family to enjoy as a fun but educational read.You can act this out while reading the story - even as an adult - and feel the anger and tension start to slip away. The depth of emotions these characters confronted and the thoughtful approach to simple yet powerful techniques to push through those rushes of emotions made for an educated yet entertaining read. It focuses on coping with anger, but it's appropriate for stress/anxiety, sadness, and many other struggles. The warm watercolor style illustrations did an awesome job of capturing the life under the sea vibes that the narrative was trying to bring to life, and the rich atmosphere brilliantly brought the sea life surrounding the Octopus to life.
