Customer Reviews

LOVE THIS BOOK!

My mom gave this book to my 4 year old son, and he absolutely loves it. He can sometimes be a grump himself, so he gets a kick out of the grumpy song, as well as the happy song. This book is awesome!

The Old Man and the Afternoon Cat

I fondly remember reading this book as a child. The illustrations are bright and simple as is the text. The grumpy song in the front was a favorite of mine to sing when I was having a bad day, as was the happy ending song on a good day. I was comforted in knowing two things: I wasn't the only person to have bad days, and things would get better just as they did for the old man. I look forward to reading this story to my children in the future.
