Jack has a grumpy grandpa, and he calls him that, even though he’s not supposed to. But it’s true. Grandpa is grumpy—and a little scary, too. He has hair where other people do not have hair, and his teeth don’t stay in his mouth. You’d have to be crazy to live with Grandpa . . . or as brave as a lion tamer, like Jack’s aunt and uncle. But the truth is, Grandpa didn’t always have hair and teeth in weird places. In fact, Grandpa wasn’t even always grumpy. A book that closes the generation gap one little bit, Grumpy Grandpa captures childhood and grandpa-hood with humor, hyperbole, and heart

Gregory’s Grandpa Grumpy is certainly cranky—he can find something wrong with anything and everything, even though there’s nothing really wrong at all! Take the zoo, for example. When Grandpa Grumpy takes Gregory and his friends on an outing, it’s too hot, it looks like rain, and they might even be late getting there. Not to mention the baboons are too smelly, the camels are too bumpy, and the ice cream is, well, too messy! But every one of Grandpa’s negatives results in a positive for a child—one can see the baboons better, another gets an extra ride on a camel, and a youngster with no money ends up with Grandpa’s ice cream cone. Even when he is too hot and tired to go on, Grandpa manages to find a place to rest … right next to a playground! Most children have encountered a grump at one time or another—maybe even in their own families. This chuckle of a book teaches kids to look beyond the gruff exterior, like Gregory does, to find the love inside.

An artful mixture of fantasy and reality, humor and heart, Maya Was Grumpy celebrates the power of imagination and humor to improve moods. Maya wakes up on the wrong side of the bed, tangled in her blanket, and in a crispy, cranky, grumpy, grouchy mood. She doesn’t want to color or wear her favorite shorts or go outside to play. What’s worse, she’s determined to share her grumpiness with everyone as she glumps, clumps, and thumps around the house. But when Maya growls at her grandmother, she graciously takes Maya’s mood in stride, and even has a solution: Gramma suggests a series of unusual activities that Maya will probably not want to do since she’s feeling grumpy—and then dismisses her own silly suggestions before Maya can reject them. Children will find it hard to keep from smiling as they watch Maya’s grouchiness dissolve into glee at Gramma’s giggle-inducing ideas, while adults will find Gramma’s clever tactic a useful strategy to add to their repertoire when kids are grumpy.
