Teaching children how to manage their thoughts and words without interrupting.

Louis always interrupts! All of his thoughts are very important to him, and when he has something to say, his words rumble and grumble in his tummy, they wiggle and jiggle on his tongue and then they push on his teeth, right before he ERUPTS (or interrupts). His mouth is a volcano! But when others begin to interrupt Louis, he learns how to respectfully wait for his turn to talk.

My Mouth Is A Volcano takes an empathetic approach to the habit of interrupting and teaches children a witty technique to help them manage their rambunctious thoughts and words. 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.

Finally!...A book that deals with the universal challenge of teaching children the social nuances of polite conversation, not interrupting, and when to stop talking. As an educator, Julia Cook combines her many years of experience and profound insight with humor, rhythmic verse, and colorful illustrations to create a book that all children are sure to enjoy (and that every parent, teacher, and child-care provider will undoubtedly appreciate)! --Dr. Laura A. Jana - National Trainer for Reach Out and Read

Great illustrations and good story

Reviewed in Australia on 1 October 2020

Verified Purchase

We purchased this book as an alternative to social stories about interrupting for my son. It was really well written and he was even engaged in the storyline, when he would usually run a mile at the sight of a social story.
Very well written about words getting pushed out and erupting like a volcano.

Great story about learning how to control your words

Reviewed in Australia on 17 July 2020

Verified Purchase

My little one and I both have a hard time controlling the words that come out of our mouths, and this book has been very helpful with that. I have found it helpful both as a parent, and for myself. I will say that it is quite long for a children's book so keep that in mind. My little one has just turned 4 and finds it difficult to sit through the whole thing. We usually read it in two or three parts. Overall this is a helpful tool to have in the parenting toolbox.

Useful life skill for children and adults!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 November 2018

Good story about remembering to use our voices at the right time. It somehow conveys the frustrations of trying to teach your children not to disrupt, without being too preachy and the main character resonates with my children. As parents, we too have also learned true conversational skills, so that we too can lead by example - I know I can sometimes can be guilty of getting to excited and talking over others!

Great starting point for classroom management /class rules

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 November 2018

Verified Purchase

Super book to help children understand how interrupting out shouting out affects others. I used it in class and the children loved it. They even refer back to the book when people start shouting out.

good talking point

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 January 2016

Verified Purchase

We love, love love this book. I have loud and boisterous kids and we read alot so I thought this would be worth a go. They haven't picked up on the idea as quickly as others but they enjoy the book and it gives us the chance to talk about erupting.
