Product description
The Sour Grape follows a grape who holds grudges over every little thing, convinced that staying upset is the only way to protect himself. But when someone turns the tables and refuses to forgive him, the Sour Grape begins to realize how exhausting—and unfair—grudges can be. With Jory John’s signature humor and Pete Oswald’s expressive illustrations, this engaging addition to the bestselling Food Group series delivers a heartfelt message about forgiveness, compassion, and letting go. As children enjoy the story, they naturally strengthen reading comprehension, vocabulary, and social-emotional learning while developing empathy, conflict-resolution skills, emotional awareness, and an understanding of the importance of forgiveness and healthy friendships.
