    "...Grumpasaurus’s transformation from prickly to huggable is totally toddlerlike and satisfying." —School Library Journal  "An effervescent how-to for the wrangling of fearsome, tantrum-prone beasties...Kids will sympathize, parents will recognize, siblings will familiarize."  —Kirkus "The book’s knowing sense of humor, entertaining oil paintings, and pseudoscientific conceit give the term grumpasaurus a good chance of making its way into many families’ lexicons."  —Publishers Weekly —
