[Kimo](W95YDZY3) the Hedgehog was having a tough day. His block tower tumbled down. His crayon broke in half. And then—someone sat in his favorite spot!

1

[Kimo](W95YDZY3)’s face got hot. His fists got tight. His spikes stood up straight. “I’m ANGRY!” [Kimo](W95YDZY3) shouted.

2

[Kimo](W95YDZY3) stomped his little feet. He wanted to yell louder. He wanted to throw things. But then—[Kimo](W95YDZY3) remembered something.

3

“Anger is a big feeling,” he whispered. “And big feelings need calm.” [Kimo](W95YDZY3) curled into a little ball.

4

He took a deep breath in… *snfff!* He blew a long breath out… *pfffff!* He tried again. Breath in… *snfff!* Breath out… *pfffff!*

5

With each breath, his spikes felt softer. His fists opened up. His face cooled down.

6

[Kimo](W95YDZY3) slowly uncurled. The angry fire inside was smaller now. [Kimo](W95YDZY3) told himself, “It’s okay to feel angry. I can breathe, I can pause, and I can choose what to do.”

7

He picked up his broken crayon. “I’ll use the other half,” he said. He built his tower again, block by block.

8

And when someone sat in his spot, he found another cozy place to sit.

9

[Kimo](W95YDZY3) felt proud. The anger came… and the anger went. And [Kimo](W95YDZY3) was still [Kimo](W95YDZY3)—safe, calm, and strong.
