Storytime with the Hoboken Police Department Featuring Police Officer Dylan Archilla Reading "When Sophie Gets Angry – Really, Really Angry"

Hoboken Police Officer Dylan Archilla reads "When Sophie Gets Angry – Really, Really Angry” By Molly Bang.

Review: "Bang captures the intensity of Sophie's feelings with strong, broadly brushed forms and colors: images of flames and a volcano; blue eyes glaring up from a red background that looks as if it's exploding; then harmonious, leafy greens and browns; and concluding scenes of domestic amity....Sophie finds a way to cope with her anger, quite laudably, without a helping adult hand." -- Kirkus Reviews
