Students with specific learning disabilities (SLDs) sometimes experience anger, which can negatively affect their academic performance and social relationships if not managed properly. Prevention and intervention programs are beneficial in addressing this issue. Bibliotherapy is an effective method for anger management and is categorized into institutional, clinical, and developmental types, with developmental bibliotherapy being the most used in educational settings. The article outlines the implementation steps in developmental bibliotherapy and offers practical guidance on structuring sessions to address anger in early elementary-aged children with learning disabilities. In addition, a curated list of picture books, especially for the first grade, is included to facilitate the implementation of bibliotherapy sessions focused on anger management.
