Grumpy Bird

Grumpy Bird by Jeremy Tankard
Grade Level: For anyone who has ever had a grumpy day

If you've ever had a day where you just feel grumpy, this book is for you. Jeremy Tankard's vibrant illustrations brighten up this grumpy book where Bird walks along, grumpily accruing friends along the way until he suddenly realizes he has walked his grumpies out.

We read this book at our house on grumpy days. Sometimes many times a day. This morning my 10 month old son asked my husband for a book ("bbb") but was dissatisfied with my husband's choice. He threw the board book aside, spent 2 minutes pulling himself up to the coffee table, and pointed his little finger at Grumpy Bird, saying with certainty, "Bbb!" And then we read it over and over and over...
