My children and I received the book for free in a Goodreads Giveaways raffle.
This book stars JP, who is usually fun and silly, but, on this day, doesn't feel fun. He feels mad, like when the polka-dotted aliens invaded his spaceship!
The kids really found this book fun and entertaining. They really liked the illustrations within the book - wanting to spend time with each picture. As a parent, I liked that even though JP got mad, my kids got to see that JP figured out he could get himself into a good mood again by making silly sounds, dancing and making monkey faces.
My kids are ages 7 (boy) and 5 (girl). Both enjoyed this story and are probably the right age (maybe even on the older side) for sharing this story. I could see the entire series being an enjoyable one...give kids ideas what to do with their feelings...similar to the Roger Hargreaves series (Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Happy, Little Miss Sunshine, etc.)
