The Grumpus Under the Rug,
By
This review is from: The Grumpus Under the Rug (Modern Curriculum Press Beginning to Read) (Paperback)
The Grumpus Under the Rug is written by multiple award winning author Ellen Jackson. Jackson has received awards for most of her books including, Earth Mother, Scatterbrain Scam, Looking for Life in the Universe and many more!The Grumpus Under the Rug is about a strange Grumpus man who pulls silly tricks around the house while no one is watching. After he makes his mess, he runs and hides under the rug, where no one can see him. He does things like putting marshmallows in the typewriter and toothpaste in the phone! The boy's mother thinks her son is the one who is making these big messes. So she punishes him every time he denies he made the mess. "Oh mother, cried the little boy, I didn't do it! It was the Grumpus who lives under the rug!" But the mother doesn't believe in the Grumpus under the rug! The artwork in this book is my favorite thing about it. Growing up, The Grumpus Under the Rug, was my absolutely favorite book. I loved the pictures because they were so silly. I remember thinking about how much trouble I would be in if I had tried to do the things the Grumpus did. I think this book is terrific! I absolutely give it two thumbs up. It has a great story line, for kids of all ages to enjoy. I read it to every class I substitute for, and all of the kids have been crazy about it. If you're looking for a wise tale, it is a wonderful and fun way to explain where the moon came from.

Fun, a little scary...,
By Erica (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Grumpus Under the Rug (Modern Curriculum Press Beginning to Read) (Paperback)
My parents used to read this to me when I was really small. I remembered it for twenty years, and even when I asked them about a creature who was mischevious and got a little boy in trouble, they didn't have any idea what I was talking about. I realized I wasn't crazy when I suddenly remembered the title and found the book online.Anyway, the reason I remembered it for so long is that it scared me a little... I started looking out for odd-looking creatures doing misdeeds. It has good morals and a sweet ending. A nice read-to-your-kids book.
