When Clara goes to her Grandparent's farm, she and her cousin Kiara make the choice to notice the things that make them feel happy and grateful. Grumpy or Grateful is the first in our series of books which explore some of the virtues, values, and experiences that help us grow as humans. Each book is a journey of discovery, watching the characters discover, understand, and choose the virtues and values that will help them live with greater purpose and joy. We hope these stories, and the activities available to support each story, will assist parents and guardians as you strive to build your families and raise strong humans.
