Synopsis
A warm and funny Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) picture book about big feelings, grumpy mornings, and how one unexpected moment can turn everything around.
When little hedgehog Emy wakes up in a stormy mood, nothing can cheer her up-not sunshine, not breakfast, not even her friends' silly games. She insists she will be "GRUMPY... FOREVER!"
But feelings have a way of changing, and a surprise splash into a giant muddy puddle soon teaches Emy that even the grumpiest moments don't last forever.
Grumpy Emy gently supports children in understanding and navigating emotions. Through humour, empathy, and a relatable real-life scenario, young readers learn:
- It's okay to have grumpy days
- Feelings come and go
- Family and friends can help us regulate
- Laughter and play can shift our mood
- Emotions don't define who we are
With expressive woodland characters and a joyful, heart-warming ending, this book encourages emotional awareness, empathy, and resilience in a way children easily connect with.
Perfect for homes, classrooms, and school counsellors, Grumpy Emy reassures young readers that all feelings are welcome-and that even the stormiest mornings can end with sunshine and giggles.
Includes SEL-inspired reading comprehension questions to spark meaningful conversations.
A charming, giggle-filled picture book for ages 4-10 and a wonderful addition to any SEL collection.
