In Sherry Ellis' delightful book, That Mama is a Grouch, children from age 3-7 will quickly learn that clutter-caused tension in a home can be avoided. In this story, Mama is having a bit of a tantrum over the mess, and the narrator, a precocious child indeed, soon understands all too well. Toys are strewn about as obstacles that can cause falls and short tempers. Mama is tired-tired-tired of cleaning up this constant clutter. In a voice as wise as it is adorable, the narrator reminds children that parents are human, with feelings and moods. At the same time, parents are reminded that children are, well, children! Ms. Ellis has produced a book that takes the place of yelling. Whether read by adults to children or a child reading alone, this book guarantees to charm, amuse, and result in some much-needed changes in behavior

    "That Mama is a Grouch" is the perfect way to teach children that grownups can have crabby days. The lessons in rhyme with adorable illustrations bring humor and lightheartedness to the ups and downs that we all experience from time to time. Looking forward to reading this to my 4 yr-old grandson!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Want to Communicate with Your Child? Get this Book
    Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    That Mama is a Grouch teaches how children behave, how they feel, and how they perceive their parents, but most importantly, the story teaches children to be more responsible. Caretakers, nannies or early childhood educators should have this book in their book collection.

    I bought That Mama is a Grouch for my sister because she has young children, and they are expressive, saying exactly what they have on their minds. My sister, a teacher, likes to help her children to understand what they have read, and this book is one that helps parents and children to communicate better. Why is Mama a grouch in the child’s eyes? there's much to debate from child's point or view vice versa for the parent.

    5.0 out of 5 stars This is a tender and informative book great for a parent to read to a child
    Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2016
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This is a tender and informative book great for a parent to read to a child. I can see this book being used particularly when parents are being grumpy and kids are getting upset. It would be a good way to calm everyone down and provoke some stimulating discussions. It would also make a marvelous bedtime read if the day didn't go as planned. Though my kids are older now, I'm looking forward to reading it to my grandchildren. Great story and message. Bravo!

    2.0 out of 5 stars I didn't like it
    Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2013
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This book got lots of great reviews and as I am a 'grouchy mom' I though it would be a fun read for my kids and myself. Personally I didn't like it as it seemed to give the message that it was the child's fault the mom was a grouch; that if they cleaned up their room for example, all would be well. In some cases that might be true but in our house I'm usually grouchy about other things and didn't want to give that message to my kids.

    5.0 out of 5 stars a girl, her grouchy mama, and an important lesson
    Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    This book is centered on a girl who just wants to have fun, but this involves making her mother grouchy. Sure kids do annoying things, whether they mean to or not, but setting rules and explaining one's point of view can get a strong and clear message across. This is a great book to show kids how their behavior affects others and that they should clean up after themselves. The girl, her grouchy mama, the rhyme, and colorful illustrations are splendid.

    Absolutely Brilliant! My children love this book. The first time me and my daughter read it she went right upstairs to clean her room, and that never happens! I have only had the book 2 days and I have read it about 10 times already, my children can't get enough. Every Mother and child can relate to this book. It is both humorous and delightful and explains both aspects of the typical family household, the messy child and the grouchy mom. I highly recommend this book!

    4.0 out of 5 stars I'm sure my daughter could relate!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2013
    I love that this story is from the child's POV! I know that there've been many times that I've sounded just like the mama in this book. I also liked the resolution they came to.
    I would have probably given the story 5 stars had I not read it in kindle format. Not that there was anything wrong with the kindle version but I think a book would do the illustrations more justice.
