This hilarious story about shaking off the grumpies with a little help from your friends by the talented Jeremy Tankard is now a board book! Bird wakes up feeling grumpy. Too grumpy to eat or play. Too grumpy even to fly. "Looks like I'm walking today," says Bird. He walks past Sheep, who offers to keep him company. He walks past Rabbit, who also could use a walk. Raccoon, Beaver, and Fox join in, too. All the while, Bird grows grumpier and grumpier! But before he knows it, a little exercise and companionship help Bird overcome his bad mood. This winsome, refreshingly original story is sure to help kids (and grown-ups) giggle away theirs, too! Safe for all ages. Review: Great for smaller kiddos! Fun read for parents! - My son is 6 almost 7. He has some behavioral problems and we randomly came across the Hungry Bird book at the grocery store in a bargain bin and so started the Bird book obsession! These books are adorable. Bird is quite the character and I enjoy reading all 4 of the Bird books(at least 1 a night if not ALL 4). (Grumpy, Hungry, Sleepy and Boohoo (Bird)). Good little lessons in each book and end very clever. The illustrations are super cute! Review: We Love Grumpy Bird! - We've had this Grumpy Bird book for 7 years now! 7 years and four kids! We had the paperback that entire time and it's been read so many times that we needed the hardcover copy. Its the best book, especially for little kids who are a little grumpy and need something to turn their frown upside down. This book is sweet and shows how patience and friendship can help anyone improve their day.

One of my favorite books for my 2yr old diva
My daughter one day started throwing tantrums when we couldn't understand her and/or she didn't get her way. She'd sulk in a corner and tell us she was angry. I searched amazon for some age-appropriate books to talk about feelings with her - this book is fantastic, she loves the pictures and the story is perfect for her age. The bird wakes up grumpy and eventually the other animals help him forget. Simple, to the point, perfect.

Well.. that's a weird ending.
My toddler loves this book so much, however as the parent that has to read it, I can say it ends very strangely, but hey its a kids book.

because we all can get a little grumpy sometimes...
A really excellent book. Bought it for my boy when he was 4 and 2 years later he still loves this. Perfect tool to draw him out of those random grumpy moods he gets into sometimes. We use a unique silly voices for each of the animal characters, which my son just loves. The illustrations are also gorgeous...definitely not like what you would see in your average kids book. Final bonus...this book, and the equally good boo hoo bird, are available in French.

Sarcastic witty and funny
My baby loves when I used different voices for the different characters in this book and the grump tone for the grumpy bird. Cute read.

Fun to read, 2 year old loves it too
my 2 year old son loves this book. As grumpy bird cheers up, he starts to smile too and by the end has a big smile on his face. It's also a fun book for me to read to him because I get to use different voices for the different animals grumpy bird passes by.

Joyful book about being grumpy
This is a lovely book. Being a fan of modern and street art I was obviously attracted to the book as it looked a bit radical and different to many pre-school books. My daughter was only around a year old at the time and she instantly loved it. Seven months later and she still adores it - she points and the illustrations as well as joining in with the words. Happy daughter - and a happy dad.

Grumpy Bird = Happy Kids
My kids LOVE this book. When they are misbehaving I ask if they are being "Grumpy Birds". We like to act out part of the book - gets them involved and they like it too.
