Description

Not every birthday begins with a smile—especially when it’s Timmy Turtle’s. In Jellycat All Kinds of Grumpy, written by Kitty Pawson and illustrated by Pauline Gregory, we meet a wonderfully relatable little turtle with a frown that’s hard to shift. It’s Timmy’s special day, and his friends have gone out of their way to bring him thoughtful gifts. But with Timmy’s slightly pessimistic nature, the question remains: will he manage to be grateful?

This charming board book is a celebration of all the grumps among us—the ones who might not always show their joy on the outside, but still feel it deep down. With gentle humour and expressive illustrations, it captures the ups and downs of moodiness in a way that’s both heartwarming and hilariously familiar. Whether you’re a lifelong grump or just having an off day, Timmy’s journey reminds us that it’s okay to feel all kinds of ways—and that sometimes, joy sneaks in when we least expect it.

Measuring 22 x 19cm with 26 sturdy pages, All Kinds of Grumpy is perfect for little hands and big feelings. The expressive artwork brings Timmy and his friends to life, from their hopeful faces to Timmy’s signature scowl. The story is simple, sweet, and full of personality, making it a great read-aloud for families or a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates a bit of grumpy charm.

Recommended for all ages, this book is a gentle reminder that emotions come in many shades—and that even the grumpiest among us can find a reason to smile. Whether it’s a birthday surprise or a quiet moment of connection, All Kinds of Grumpy is a story that speaks to the heart.
