A picture book about a rambunctious boy who learns to manage his big feelings.
 

Sometimes Dash gets so excited that his chest feels warm and fuzzy, his toes dance, and his fingertips tickle the air. When that starts, he can’t seem to control what he does next, and often, trouble follows.
 
Luckily, with a little help, Dash finds a way to slow himself down when big feelings threaten to take over.
 
This joyous book introduces a clever technique to engage the imagination and relax the mind, perfect for those who are impulsive like Dash, those who hold in their feelings, and everyone in between.
Gibson Frazier is an actor, writer, and filmmaker living in New York City. He has worked in numerous independent films with such luminaries as Steven Soderbergh, Noah Baumbach, Greta Gerwig, and Kirk Douglas. He also co-wrote, produced, and starred in the cult hit Man of the Century.  Gibson  has narrated over 60 audiobooks including the beloved Spy School and Funjungle series written by New York Times bestselling author Stuart Gibbs. A denizen of New York’s downtown theatre scene, Gibson was named one of the best off-Broadway actors by both Time Out: New York and The Village Voice. View titles by Gibson Frazier
