Amelia, a small girl, and Nilson, a giant blue gorilla, are always together. Usually both play happily, but occasionally something goes wrong and Nilson throws a huge fit. Amelia calms him by saying, “No fits, Nilson” and distracts him with something positive (banana pancakes, favorite froggy coin purse, etc.) As they go through the day doing errands at the grocery store, Post Office, and standing in lines, Amelia is able to help Nilson cope with disappointments. At the end of the day when there is no banana ice cream, Amelia needs Nilson to calm her down. That night in bed, Amelia hugs her small, stuffed toy gorilla as she wishes “No Fits Nilson” sweet banana dreams. Everyone needs to control one’s temper at one time or another and this story of Amelia and Nilson show how a favorite toy can be a successful coping tool. The illustrations resemble woodcuts and are large and colorful. Text is large and in simple sentences. Good addition to libraries needing books for young readers on being in control of one’s emotions.
