An adorable spin on a “seed”. Can’t wait to read this to my grandchildren this coming Halloween!!!!

I really like this series of books they send a good message. This one talks about no making a big deal out of things that are trivial. I think my son doesn't quite get the message but as he gets a little older he will. It is a cute book and easy read. It's a fun Halloween book too which my son enjoys all year round.

I really like the messages the author Jory John presents in each book. This one “a bad mood” is relatable to everyone. I especially love it when these story’s take their turn for the better. The way Jory John describes the the seeds change of heart, but in a realistic (human) way. We can always have a change of heart throughout life as well as setbacks. Maybe it’s the way we look at a situation just try change your point of view and do it to it. If you fail, take note and try again! I would recommend this book as well as the rest of his books. By the way I also enjoy the detailed illustrations.

My niece loves this author! Everything that they write is amazing. She was a year and a half memorizing the books because she love to hear them so much. This book is so adorable! I love the message to not stress out on Halloween, and just have fun with it. You don’t have to have a fancy expensive costume. Just left for the holiday.
