Grumpy Monkey by Suzanne Lang - Read Aloud - Bedtime Story

This is a funny little story we can all relate to. Handling bad feelings is an important skill to learn. Through this book, children learn that it’s okay to feel your feelings. It's okay to be grumpy, but when it leads to yelling at your friends or family, that can make you feel sad. It's important to learn self-control and be able to feel grumpy without hurting other people. That way when we feel better again, we don’t need to apologize for being mean or rude. It’s a hard thing even grown-ups struggle with. I think we have to work on it our whole lives. That’s why this is such a valuable little story. The good news, in the end, is that knowing how it feels to feel grumpy means we know how other people feel when they’re grumpy, and sometimes, just sitting with them and knowing what they’re feeling can help them a little bit.
