Why Is Mom Always Grouchy

By Sasha Dietze

Some days, Mom is cheerful and full of energy... but other days, she seems a little grouchy.
When Xariah, Kiara, and Quinn accidentally make a big mess in the living room, they start to wonder - "Why is Mom always so grouchy?"

Dad steps in to help them understand that sometimes grown-ups get tired, busy, or overwhelmed - and that the best way to help is by working together as a family. With love, teamwork, and a few giggles along the way, the kids come up with a plan to surprise Mom in the sweetest way possible.

Heartwarming, funny, and filled with love, Why Is Mom Always Grouchy? shows children that even when parents seem grumpy, it's often because they care deeply and do so much for the people they love.

This beautifully illustrated story by Sasha Dietze, author of Xariah's Super Wheels and Xariah's Color Quest, encourages empathy, family bonding, and the joy of helping at home. Perfect for bedtime or family reading time, this story will make both kids and parents smile - and maybe even hug a little tighter.
