Freddie the Fly's friend Stella the Stinkbug has a problem. Or lots of problems.
Some problems are BIG and some are small.
But every time she faces a problem, she reacts the same way.
She
BUGS OUT.
And you know what happens when a stinkbug bugs out? It causes a
BIG STINK!
With the help from Mrs. Monarch, Stella and Freddie learn about different kinds of problems:
BIG problems,
MEH problems, and
NO BIGS. Each problem has an appropriate reaction. Mrs. Monarch teaches Stella and Freddie two important questions to ask themselves, and then the problem-solving can begin!
Follow along as Freddie and Stella learn to control their reactions to different problems, and to keep small problems small so they can be easily solved. Another great teaching story from the
Freddie the Fly series by Speech-Language Pathologist and expert Kim Delude! Great for K through 5 children and the adults in their lives.
Tips are included at the end of the story to help children learn to identify when a problem is a big deal and how to match their reaction to the size of the problem.
