Kenny Lamb takes readers to an unexpected island—a place somewhere between Seuss and Silverstein. There, children will discover for themselves the down-sides of being grumpy, laughing knowingly at much of what they see along the way.

 

Overview

“The Island of Grump is a far-away place, where no one is happy – not ONE smile per face.”

Pity the poor boy who finds himself on the Island of Grump in this rhythmic and rhyming cautionary tale. It is a sad place indeed with no sunlight, no starlight, no fun, and no friends. And what’s worse—there’s no way out!

With its hilarious pictures and clever words, no reader will be able to resist the appeal of the story, nor will they miss its truth. Kenny Lamb’s text can practically be sung, and Jon Buckner’s cartoon illustrations will hold readers on every page— capturing the growing grumpiness of the place and the “I’ve felt that” emotions of the star character.
