The Unbudgeable Curmudgeon by Matthew Burgess

A BANK STRET BEST BOK OF THE YEAR

For any kid or parent that's having a bit of a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day, this book is an instant pick me up. Great for siblings, too --Red Tricycle

After reading aloud, listeners might discover their own ways to unbudge curmudgeons.--Publishers Weekly

Playful language and a subtly rhyming text create an enjoyable read-aloud about frustrations and bad moods. --Booklist

What do you do with a curmudgeon that just won't budge? Why, shake off the grumpy 'tude and embrace the fun

Have you ever seen a curmudgeon that looks like your brother, but is in such a bad mood you hardly recognize him? You can try all the peanut butter sandwiches and brownies you have, but he is not moving.

Nothing works, especially nudging, and he just makes you so grumpy that eventually you have no choice but to fight back--and then.

Have you ever become a curmudgeon that just won't budge?

Matthew Burgess's playful depiction of bad moods and sibling rivalry is matched perfectly by Fiona Woodcock's unique childlike art style.
Matthew Burgess is one of the founders of specialist firm View Legal. Having the opportunity to help clients achieve their goals is what he is most passionate about. As Matthew always works in conjunction with trusted advisers (whether it be accountants, financial advisers or other lawyers) and their clients, finding ways to fundamentally improve the value received by those advisers, and in turn their clients, has led him to develop numerous game changing models. Examples include providing guaranteed upfront fixed pricing, founding what is widely regarded as Australia's first virtual law firm, and more recently, developing a platform that gives advisers access to market leading advice and support for less than $1 a week. Matthew's specialisation in tax, structuring, asset protection, estate and succession planning has seen him recognised by most leading industry associations including the Tax Institute, the Weekly Tax Bulletin and in the 2014 'Best Lawyers' list for trusts and estates and either personally, or as part of View, since 2015 in 'Doyles' for taxation and since 2017 for wills, estates and succession planning. Work is one aspect of his life Matthew loves, so there is no need to be constantly searching for 'balance'. His other great loves are: 1. Family - they are profiled in various ways through the series of children's books he has written under the pseudonym 'Lily Burgess' - see www.wordsfromdaddysmouth.com.au and various TV commercials; 2. Learning - going cold Turkey on television and most forms of media in late 2005 has radically increased Matthew's ability to study the great authors and inspired him to publish a series of books that explore the concept of 'true success' - see www.thedreamenabler.com.au 3. Health - aside from being a foodie and swimming at least 5kms a week, Matthew installed a stand up workstation in 2007 and among a few other lifestyle choices, it changed his life.
