Ever deal with a grumpy kid—or maybe even a grumpy yourself? 😡 We’ve all been there! That’s why this week’s read-aloud might just be one of my favorites. Meet Cindy—the girl who seems to be angry about everything. Her constant complaints earn her the less-than-flattering nickname, “Cindayella.”
“Cindayella and the Fairy Wordmother” by Becky Cummings is a delightful twist on a classic fairy tale. With the help of a magical Fairy “Wordmother”, Cindy learns how to handle her big feelings and discover the power of kind words—all while taking readers on a funny, heartwarming adventure.
