- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I'm not sure if it's the books intentions but this is very much an allegory for homelessness. Grumpy the Iguana didn't used to be grumpy until his home was taken away. But it'll take a friend to help him find his place again and find a happier mood. The story isn't bad and reads more like a spoken word story than a picture book. The illustrations are not up to standard big five publishing. The book looks and feels very self-published or vanity published. That's not a bad thing. The story is nice and it works. I think this book would be better in Florida libraries where there are iguanas rather than Illinois where I'm at.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Grumpy is an an iguana that lives in Flamingo Park in Miami Beach, Florida. He is a happy iguana, until one day something terrible happens that would change his life forever. So why was he named Grumpy initially? His tree was cut down and I was prepared for a lesson about encroaching on animal habitat, but that’s not the case. It’s more a story of friendship as a new friend helps Grumpy to put his life back on track, and he discovers kindness of others. This will be a good book to add to your collection about empathy and kindness.The illustrations are vivid and very striking although at times Grumpy’s expression is more goofy than grumpy, but that adds to the fun.
