Summary

A whimsical picture book from New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado, Where'd My Giggle Go? helps your kids process their emotions in a fun, healthy way so they can transform from grumpy to laugh-out-loud happy。

"I felt kind of cranky。 I felt kind of sad。 I can't tell you why, but I even felt mad。" For every child who sometimes feels out of sorts and doesn't know why, Where'd My Giggle Go? helps normalize and dissipate negative emotions in a delightful way。

A perfect read-aloud, Where'd My Giggle Go? provides:


A natural way for you to talk with your kids about how we all get sad sometimes
A reminder that we can help others find their happiness
With colorful illustrations from Sarah Jennings, this book is:


Great for ages 4-8
Brilliant for classroom discussions about processing feelings and emotions and a resource to help parents discuss being sad, grumpy, anxious, or unhappy
Where'd My Giggle Go? follows a boy who looks all over--from the circus to the bakery to his own pocket--for his giggle。 After all, "No-giggle's no fun。 No fun, no sirree。 No-giggle is not the best way to be。" Then he realizes that bringing happiness to others is the best way to find it himself。 As he offers smiles and hugs, helps his mom wash the dishes, plays with a friend, and gives the dog a good tickle, he feels something deep, deep within start to wiggle。 And before you know it, the boy starts to giggle!

Lucado's charming but powerful message reminds each of us that getting over the grumpies is just a giggle away。

I found this book to be very engaging。 My 5 and 3 year olds enjoyed the story and found it silly。 I did notice a typo, but didn’t notice a page number, however typo said funDfun, I believe。 The illustrations fit the story and the rhyming helped keep my children interested, while also making the story funny and showing ways you can help get yourself out of a bad mood。

Cute children's picture book。 A boy wakes up with a frown and searches for his giggle。 Told with colorful illustrations and rhyming verse the boy figures out that when he can't find his giggle he can still help others be happy。 And when he and his dog help others, surprisingly he finds his giggle。 This is a sweet book with a nice moral。 I thought from the description it might talk a bit more about how it is okay to be sad or down。 Good for younger aged children and I could see myself reading to Cute children's picture book。 A boy wakes up with a frown and searches for his giggle。 Told with colorful illustrations and rhyming verse the boy figures out that when he can't find his giggle he can still help others be happy。 And when he and his dog help others, surprisingly he finds his giggle。 This is a sweet book with a nice moral。 I thought from the description it might talk a bit more about how it is okay to be sad or down。 Good for younger aged children and I could see myself reading to Kindergarten and 1st graders in my school library。 Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson: Children's division for an ARC ebook in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

What a fantastic social-emotional book for children。 Using the loss of a giggle rather than the concept of sadness helps make this book much more accessible for young children still learning about their own emotions。
