Review – Grumpy The Iguana by Susan Chapman

This short picture book works equally well as an audiobook of 6 minutes. However, it would have been nice to have seen some illustrations too.

Why is Grumpy The Iguana called Grumpy?

For a fairly good reason. Grumpy is living his best life, enjoying the familiarity of his routine when inexplicably he’s made homeless. This change naturally has a knock on effect on his wellbeing. Grumpy’ s attitude doesn’t change until he meets someone who ignores the first impression he makes and offers friendship and helpful solutions despite the rebuff.

A sweet read.

But I do wonder where was Grumpy’s resilience, it almost seemed as if he would remain in a downward spiral until rescued .

My thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an audio copy of this book in return for a candid review.
