One morning, Bird wakes up feeling too grumpy to eat or play - too grumpy even to fly. Fortunately, his animal friends know how to help Bird shake his bad mood. This refreshingly original picture book is sure to help kids giggle away their bad moods, too! "The best thing about it is the comic perfection of Bird's face as he marches along in a fury." -The Wall Street Journal "Whimsical and funny...keep this energetic picture book in mind for wee storytime members." -Kirkus Reviews
