In our very first journey together, we’ll explore the delightful tale of “Grumpy Monkey” by Suzanne Lang.
Join me as we discover why Jim Panzee, our grumpy monkey friend, is having such a tough day. Is it possible to find happiness in the little things, even when everything seems gloomy? We’ll dive into this beautifully illustrated book, filled with humor and heart, to uncover the secrets of managing emotions and finding joy in unexpected places.
But the fun doesn’t stop with the story! After we turn the last page, stick around for an interactive read-along, where you can help bring the characters to life. Together, we’ll laugh, learn, practice ASL, and maybe even make our best grumpy monkey faces!
We saved you the best seat in the house, right there! Let’s get ready for a storytime adventure that promises to be both entertaining and enlightening. Welcome to Ms. Cole’s Cubbie, where every book is a gateway to new worlds of wonder!
