The Wrong Side of the Bed

Reach for this book when your child wakes up with a scowl, refuses to get dressed, or seems stuck in a cycle of morning grumpiness. It is the perfect tool for those 'off' days when every little thing feels like a disaster and your child needs a gentle nudge toward a change in perspective. The story follows a young girl who literally wakes up on the wrong side of the bed, leading to a series of whimsical mishaps involving a cast of chaotic animals. It uses humor and fantasy to validate that bad moods happen while showing how a bit of imagination and a 'do-over' can shift one's outlook. It is ideal for preschoolers and early elementary students who are learning to regulate big emotions and practice resilience.
