The story offers a way in to talk about our frustrations and how we can manage them, reinforcing good behaviour. At the end of the story, there are notes for parents and teachers with suggestions of ways to help children deal with the big emotions they experience.

Ben's friends aren't happy. Amir has broken his best truck. Mick took Tim's football without asking, and Molly has lost her dog. How can Ben make his friends feel better?
