From the publisher

When Jim wakes up one Tuesday morning, he doesn’t feel like eating his pancakes. In fact, Jim doesn’t feel like Jim. He feels rather, well, beastly. But he is hungry. Very hungry….This clever and relatable tale of moods from Laurel Snyder and Chuck Groenink offers a lighthearted depiction of the beastliness that lives inside all of us—and the power we have to put it in its place. Surprising yet satisfying, this richly illustrated book brims with humor that readers of all ages will be roaring to devour.
