About this product

Product Information

How do you resolve a grudge? Take it to the Grudge Keeper! But be careful not to accumulate too many. No one in the town of Bonnyripple ever kept a grudge. No one, that is, except Cornelius, the Grudge Keeper. Ruffled feathers, petty snits, minor tiffs and major huffs, insults, umbrage, squabbles, dust-ups, and imbroglios--the Grudge Keeper received them all, large and small, tucking each one carefully away in his ramshackle cottage. Gradually the grudges accumulate as Minnie Fletcher's goat eats Elvira Bogg's prizewinning petunias, Sylvester Quincy snags the schoolmaster's toupee, and Big Otto stomps on Lily Belle's feet during the spring fling. One night the wind rises, flinging together the people and their grudges, scrambling the squabbles with the quibbles and piling the lows blows and the high dudgeon together. And where is Cornelius?

Reviews
This is an especially attractive picture book... Wheeler's eye-catching cartoon drawings are busy with activity and whimsical detail that adds fullness to this simple, pleasant tale, and Rockliff's telling is sprightly. This book will resonate most with teachers and adults looking to share stories about the value of forgiveness., "Rockliff has created a clever fable characterized by ornate language, extraordinary characters and billowy atmosphere. ... Wheeler's strong, witty ink-and-watercolor illustrations combine with the text to humorously demonstrate that "holding a grudge" is a bad thing." -- Kirkus, * STARRED REVIEW * "Wheeler's (Miss Maple's Seeds) sure hand and lyrical pen-and-ink spreads are the source of this story's charm. Long skirts billow, the fairy-tale cottage of Cornelius the Grudge Keeper leans sweetly to one side, and the white scraps of paper on which villagers have written their grudges billow and drift like sea foam." -- Publishers Weekly "This is an especially attractive picture book... Wheeler's eye-catching cartoon drawings are busy with activity and whimsical detail that adds fullness to this simple, pleasant tale, and Rockliff's telling is sprightly. This book will resonate most with teachers and adults looking to share stories about the value of forgiveness." -- School Library Journal "Brimming with movement, a bounce here and there, billowing dresses and courtly shirts, Wheeler's lyrical drawings perfectly complement Rockliff's tale of forgiveness. This is a warm-hearted book to savor and read over and over again." -- Maureen Palacios, The Indie Next List, "Wheeler's (Miss Maple's Seeds) sure hand and lyrical pen-and-ink spreads are the source of this story's charm.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
