Monkey is having a bad day. He couldn’t find his teddy, the swings were busy, and now Dog is in his place in yoga class. Monkey does not want to do yoga, and he does not want to work with Dog. Monkey is grumpy!... But then, something magical happens. Happy Panda suggests a special song, Sa Ta Na Ma . The gentle singing and chanting shifts Monkey’s grumpy mood making him feel calmer and more centred. Yoga is the best but making up with friends is even better!
An entertaining and humorous story about yoga, friendship and mindfulness.
‘Don’t Be Grumpy, Monkey!’ is the second book in the series and features Sa Ta Na Ma meditation and chanting.
Children can join in singing and chanting the Sa Ta Na Ma meditation at home (just scan the QR code in the book).

Picking up Snezana Danilovic's latest book titled "Don't be grumpy, monkey!" I fell in love with the beautiful illustrations created by Sandy Thornton. Illustrations like these are worth reading this book for.
Through her story, author Snezana Danilovic shows children and their parents how not to be a nagging person. A nagging person prevents other people from completing their assigned tasks. Using animals as an example, she shows us what classes look like when a certain grumpy monkey comes to them. How did other yoga class students react to her bad behaviour? Happy Panda conducts amazing yoga classes. Will her activities curb Monkey's bad behaviour?
The exercises performed by students in the Yoga class can be done together with children. What I liked the most was the exercise with repeating the words: Sa Ta Na Ma. They must be repeated three times. I immediately feel relaxed.
I read this book to my son. He was disappointed with Monkey's behaviour. He liked the whole story and its ending. I recommend this fairy tale to all children.
If you have problems with your children's behaviour, read them the book "Don't be grumpy, Monkey!" and do the exercises together with the Yoga Class participants. This should help you manage your child's inappropriate behaviour.
I wholeheartedly recommend this book to all children and their parents.
