    I received an old put-of-print book which is hard to find so I was concerned about how it would be wrapped and shipped, but it wrapped VERY well and arrived in a timely manner. It is also in very good condition, even better than I expected or as it was described. I was very pleased! It was worth the price. Thank you!

  • Fantastic Book

    My son absolutely loves this book. The art style is both colorful and unique. And, the book has taught him not only that it is perfectly normal to feel grumpy, but that it is also possible to stop feeling grumpy. He enjoys pointing out why Grumpy Bird is grumpy, what makes Grumpy Bird cease being grumpy, and what emotional state Grumpy Bird is in at the close of the book. The language used in the book is very simple, and if you read the book without discussing either the art or the story, then you will be done with it very quickly.

  • Grumpy no more

    Cute story about a bird who starts the day grumpy, but with the help of friends turns his attitude around. Grumpy Bird has become a favorite in my toddler classroom.
