Product Description All of Louis thoughts are very important to him. In fact, his thoughts are so important to him that when he has something to say, his words begin to wiggle, and then they do the jiggle, then his tongue pushes all of his important words up against his teeth and he erupts, or interrupts others. His mouth is a volcano! My Mouth Is A Volcano takes an empathetic approach to the habit of interrupting and teaches children a witty technique to capture their rambunctious thoughts and words for expression at an appropriate time. Told from Louis perspective, this story provides parents, teachers, and counselors with an entertaining way to teach children the value of respecting others by listening and waiting for their turn to speak.

my mouth is a volcano November 25, 2008 This was bought to share with children. I found it to be a good book
My daughter said "Mom that's what happens to me!" November 18, 2008 I bought this book because my daughter had been having issues interrupting both at school and at home. The book arrived in the mail and my daughter, she's 7, started to read it on her own. She got to the part where the words wiggle and then jiggle and then I erupt. She turned to me and she said "mom that's what happens to me". We read it together and I'm very hopeful that the book will help with her interrupting problem and even if it doesn't it's a very cute book.

This is a fabulous book that teaches kids to stop interrupting in a fun yet meaningful way. I work individually with kids and they often ask if they can take this book back for their whole class to share! All the teachers I have lent it to loved it as well!
We all know this child May 2, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book is good for all ages and targets children who may need help controlling themselves or learning how to behave in a social setting. It is very direct, funny, and very relevant. This author is a genius. I recommend this book for special education classes, inclusion classes, and especially for children on the Autism spectrum. It is probably useful in many k, 1, 2, and 3 grades.

This book is fun and enjoyable while teaching young children when it is appropriate to speak. The pictures are a wonderful compliment to the storyline.
