Meanies

Every kid has a few Meanies sometimes—the little voices that make them shout, pout, or stomp. In this charming, big-hearted picture book, one imaginative boy learns how kindness, empathy, and a good snack can chase those Meanies away for good. The Meanies turns big feelings into a gentle, funny, empowering story kids (and parents) will love.

★ A heartwarming new picture book for littles learning big feelings! ★

What happens when an imaginative boy invents some monsters to blame when he does bad things?
The Meanies make him take away toys and yell at his mom. Oh no! It’s not until The Meanies hurt his mom’s feelings at bedtime that he starts to wonder about ways to fight them.

The next day, during a rumbly-tummy snack time at school, he tries something new and The Meanies pack their suitcases and wave goodbye forever.
