Grumpy Bird By Jeremy Tankard

Grades: Pre-K to 1st
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.Before he knows it, a little exercise and companionship help Bird shake his bad mood. This winsome, refreshingly original picture book is sure to help kids (and grown-ups) giggle away theirs, too!
 
This is a funny and adorable story about a very emotional bird who wakes up one morning as grumpy as can be! But soon discovers as he goes for a walk that his animal friends are trying to cheer him up! Perfect book to share with a group or individually on one of your grumpy days! It will make you smile and laugh out loud.

Also checkout his birds newest adventure Boo Hoo Bird also by author Jeremy Tankard.

Boo Hoo Bird By Jeremy Tankard

Grades: Pre-K-1st
When the avian prima donna introduced in Grumpy Bird gets bonked on the head by a ball and starts to cry, not Raccoon’s kiss, Rabbit’s hug, a cookie from Beaver, or a Band-Aid from Fox can stop the flow of tears. Not only will Bird’s histrionics strike chords of recognition in parents, but the wide-eyed, very simply drawn animals suspended against collages of reworked photos and sketched-in shrubbery will also catch and hold the attention even of very young audiences. Bet high on this becoming another storytime winner, just like its predecessor.

This book is brightly illustrated and will have you laughing just like the previous title Grumpy Bird by Jeremy Tankard. Perfect for little fans of funny books and this title would be a cute companion to Mo Willens Pigeon series. Makes for a cute read aloud to young children!
