Description
From the author of Penelope's Balloons, a tale about a grumpy little bee who learns to manage her emotions, perfect for fans of Grumpy Monkey.

Princess Posie is mad as can be. Every day is filled with the same boring princess duties, yucky foods, and impossible-to-achieve expectations. Posie knows the hive is counting on her to become the queen one day, but what she really needs is a break! But no matter how many times she shares her feelings, no one will listen to her--not even her mom.

Soon, Posie's anger begins to brim and bubble ... but when she finally finds a way to let her feelings out, Posie finds herself in an even stickier situation.

Brooke Bourgeois's lush art and infectious storytelling teach a lesson in emotions that is essential for all bees big and small: it's okay to be grumpy sometimes, as long as no one gets stung along the way.
