This week we are reading Jory John’s latest book in the popular Food Group series, which includes The Bad Seed, The Good Egg, The Couch Potato, The Cool Bean and The Smart Cookie. These are always a big hit with kids and this one is a great addition! The Sour Grape tells the story of a little grape who wasn’t always sour. He had a great life with a “bunch” of his family all together. But when he sends out an invitation to his birthday party, no one shows up. This leads the grape to go from being sweet, to bitter, to snappy to sour! It’s only after he disappoints his sour-lemon friend Lenny that he realizes holding a grudge is not a good way to live. I’ve loved hearing all the lessons kids have learned this week from reading this book!
