Notes From Your Bookseller

Jory John and Pete Oswald's The Food Group series has quietly become an essential guide for how to teach children about their ever-confusing emotions. In their latest, The Sour Grape, we dive into the world of "grudges." An under-discussed part of life, grudges live in all of us regardless of age. With their signature humor and art style, John and Oswald help us digest these feelings in a way only they masterfully can. Don't skip your daily servings of The Food Group!

The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!

Don’t miss the sixth picture book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Food Group series that’s ripe with humor from Jory John and Pete Oswald!

The Sour Grape holds grudges for every reason under the sun. Lime never returned a scarf they borrowed? Grudge! Orange never called back? Grudge! But when a friend holds a grudge against the Sour Grape without listening to an explanation, the Sour Grape realizes how unfair grudges can be. Could a bunch of forgiveness and compassion be enough to turn a sour grape sweet?

Jory John and Pete Oswald serve up another heaping plate of laughs and lessons with this empowering, witty, and charming addition to their #1 New York Times bestselling series!
