[LM_NET] ELEM: Rational vs. not rational - theme for picture books

[Kathy Kaldenberg <kkaldenberg@SOLON.K12.IA.US>]

This request has come from a 4th grade teacher. Thanks in advance for your
help.

My students are going be working on thinking through "not rational"  and
"rational" ways of looking at situations.  I want to use picture books for
the kids to read about characters that may be acting not rational, and what
would be a rational alternative.  I have the following books picked out, but
would love to have a couple more, any suggestions:

Wemberly Worried
Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse
Chrysanthemun
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
