The Grumpy Frumpy Croissant

The Grumpy Frumpy Croissant is the story of a group of breakfast foods who get into an argument. Croissant's anger makes him melt a little bit, and his friend Milk helps him calm down. Even though this book is a bit silly, I love the usage of mindfulness techniques as Croissant takes some deep breaths. I could see this book being a jumping off point to talk about frustration and anger with young kids and to teach them ways to work through their frustrations in a healthy way. This is one I'd love to see in elementary classrooms for sure.

Haha this book was so funny!
Adorable pictures and a simple story about the importance of calming down and chilling out, breathing in and out.
10 breathes can do us all good.
This is great for parents and teachers to educate young Ones about how to manage feelings.
I enjoyed the pictures and the moral.
I liked the fact you could make them with recipes and the added bonus of the colouring is a yes from me!
Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the arc for an honest review.

The Grumpy Frumpy Croissant is a funny little book about Croissant and his friends Toast, Scone and Milk. The story is about how to control emotions and feelings and how different people perceive different situations.
My 4 year old son enjoyed the story and we both loved the illustrations.

Thank you to NetGalley and Canoe Tree Press for my copy.

It's a funny illustrated picture books about how to control feelings.
A suitable book to share with students.

The Grumpy Frumpy Croissant is such a cute book that teaches kids about anger and a way on how to deal with it. The illustrations were fun and helped make the book a delight to read. I liked the recipes and coloring sheets at the end of the book. This would be a great book to help teach children social skills and anger. Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher the opportunity to read this book. (This review is also on GoodReads.)

This book was a really enjoyable read for not only young children, but for me as an adult reading it to them. The book itself is short in comparison to some other picture books, but the general idea behind it is to teach kids how to handle and what to do in stressful situations.

This book highlights the use of mindfulness techniques when frustrated with other people to relieve stress and pent up aggression. When children are feeling a little ticked off they can really benefit from a little mental health focus.

The illustrations where very clear and colourful, for the kids in my class that struggle with facial recognition, the emotion of each little character was clear to them. The kids were very engaged the entire time during the read.

I loved the recipe for croissants and the colouring pages at the end of the book. It was a nice and thoughtful touch

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This picture book was too adorable not to like. The drawings were cute and the story very cut and dry. The croissant was having a bad day and instead of expressing his thoughts he bottled them up inside. I think the author did a great job of showing kids how to express their anger in an appropriate way and how to communicate effectively. I think the only thing was they showed two ways, but should have shown more. Maybe even touched on the fact that he should have talked about it instead of bottling up his emotions.

Overall, if my niece was having a bad day, this would be a great book to use to start the conversation.
