Grumpy Bird

Grumpy Bird

Everyone’s had at least one grumpy day, so it’s easy to relate to Grumpy Bird by Jeremy Tankard. One day he wakes up too grumpy to fly! So he sets off walking and along the way he runs into friends who don’t seem to understand that he wants to be ALONE. Eventually he discovers that friends can ease away grumpiness and cheer him up. Just to add to the fun, there’s a surprise at the end that will astonish the attentive reader.
