Publisher's Synopsis
When you let anger build up, you poison yourself and everyone around you. Peace, however, is just as contagious. Find a good state of mind, something that brings a smile to your face, and nothing can ever beat you. Your mind is a temple: open the windows on a warm day, and everyone smiles. Open the windows to a draft, and everyone catches a chill. In The Grumpy Duck by Chris D. Henry, we meet one individual who never learned any of this lesson, who passes from one day to the next convinced that everyone is against him and that the world is just one big conspiracy to get him down. In moments sad and in other moments heartwarming, The Grumpy Duck is a story that you will not soon forget. Mr. Grumpy, unpleasant as he may be at times, is a character that will keep your attention, and what Chris D. Henry has produced here is sure to become a classic of children's literature. Perfect for a bedtime story or something to while away the hour on a car trip, The Grumpy Duck will be a favorite of the child in your life, teaching lifelong lessons along the way. Mr. Grumpy may be angry and mean, but he is relatable, making the story one that you will not want to put down.
