Grumpy Monkey Party Time!
Grumpy Monkey Party Time!
A hilarious story in the New York Times bestselling Grumpy Monkey series now in board with abridged text for a whole new audience! Have you ever been a little anxious about attending a party? Jim Panzee feels that. Porcupine is having a big party, and according to Jim's best friend Norman, there will be--gulp--dancing. When Jim tells his friends he can't dance, they try to teach him cool moves--surely that's the only reason Jim isn't excited about going! At the party, Jim is dipped, swayed, and twirled until he can't take it anymore--he just doesn't like to dance! After Jim speaks (shouts) his truth, Water Buffalo reveals that he doesn't much care to dance, either. As more of Jim's friends have the courage speak out, they assume it's time for them to go because clearly there's no place for them at this party. But Porcupine's party has some surprises for them! This board book shows kids that it's okay not to go with the flow if they're uncomfortable, and that speaking up about what they need can help others speak up, too--maybe they need the same thing!
