Cute children's picture book. A boy wakes up with a frown and searches for his giggle. Told with colorful illustrations and rhyming verse the boy figures out that when he can't find his giggle he can still help others be happy. And when he and his dog help others, surprisingly he finds his giggle. This is a sweet book with a nice moral. I thought from the description it might talk a bit more about how it is okay to be sad or down. Good for younger aged children and I could see myself reading to Kindergarten and 1st graders in my school library. Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson: Children's division for an ARC ebook in exchange for an honest review.

What a fantastic social-emotional book for children. Using the loss of a giggle rather than the concept of sadness helps make this book much more accessible for young children still learning about their own emotions.

My brother has a 2 year old and almost 5 year old. This book would be perfect for that age group! My brother really enjoys books that rhyme. The verses in this book rhyme and are very lyrical. This is the type of book that I'm looking for to purchase for them! I think they would enjoy this one very much. The illustrations are bright and happy, well done and fun. The book has a great message. Its on my list to purchase when available.

What a fun and helpful story about how when you lose your giggle, how to find it again. The story is clever, the illustrations are fun, and the message is a great one.

A sweet story about a boy who wakes up one morning without his smile on his face. He searches everywhere, and asks all around, but to no avail. Eventually, he figures out the way to find his giggle back.
The story is told in rhythmic verse, so early readers will definitely enjoy reading this book aloud. The illustrations are very cute. Overall, it’s an enjoyable book with a nice moral.
Thank you, NetGalley and Thomas Nelson, for the Advanced Review Copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
