Heartbreaking, harrowing, the poetry of the text and rich emotional shorthand of the illustrations offer much to discover and discuss. And though I'm not at all knowledgeable about bibliotherapy or families coping with abuse, there seems to be something here with which to connect at any stage in a child's experience of an abusive situation.

There's someone in the living room. It's Dad. It is Angryman. Boj's father can be very angry and violent. Boj calls this side of his father's personality "Angryman." When Angryman comes no one is safe. Until something powerful happens... Gro Dahle's astute text and Svein Nyhus's bold, evocative art capture the full range of emotions that descend upon a small family as they grapple with "Angryman." With an important message to children who experience the same things as Boj: You are not alone. It's not your fault. You must tell someone you trust. It doesn't have to be this way!--Jacket.
