Things happen that make us mad! It’s okay to get

angry. Anger is one of the many emotions that we have.

Everyone gets mad sometimes, just like Monkey and

Lion do in this story. But we can’t stay angry forever.

Turn the page to see how Monkey and Lion calm

down after getting mad. Remember to sing along!
