When the daytime and nighttime animals on Earth get tired of Sun
and Moon's constant bickering over who should rule the world, they
hold competitions-a cookout and a race-to determine the winner once
and for all. But when neither the "night" team nor the "day" team
wins in a fair way, how will they fix their problem? This
beautifully illustrated story teaches kids respect for nature's
rhythms and each other. It includes a guide that helps parents and
teachers explain the science of Earth's day-and-night cycles in
simple language.

A funny, offbeat story about how disruptive change can be - even if
it's a holiday! Early one morning, a strange visitor arrives - a
visitor whose name is Holiday. "I'll be taking over for you today!"
Holiday tells Monday. And before long, Holiday has met the other
days, even Saturday and Sunday, who usually sleep all week. With
each introduction, Monday becomes more and more upset. She is used
to starting the week, and she'd like to keep it that way. When
Holiday announces how much fun he's having, and that he'd like to
stay, Wednesday and Friday admit that they are a little worried,
too. Meanwhile, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday are completely
smitten by this exciting new day. Finally, Monday (with Wednesday
and Friday in tow), asks Holiday to kindly pack his things and go.
Then just in time, Tuesday comes up with a solution that will work
for everyone. Natalie Nelson's ingenious characterizations of the
days of the week will delight readers young and old, as will her
story that pokes fun at how set in our ways we can be and how we
might instead choose to be open to change and embrace the
unexpected. Key Text Features speech bubbles illustrations labels

"The Last Last-Day-of-Summer reminds me that all children deserve
to exist in magical spaces where their imaginations and familial
bonds will them into heroism. Every single child should have the
freedom to be one of The Legendary Alstons. And I, for one, am
grateful to Giles, and this brilliant story, for that reminder."
--Jason Reynolds, #1 New York Times bestselling and Newbery
Honor-winning author of Stuntboy, in the Meantime In the first
Legendary Alston Boys mystery from Edgar Award nominee Lamar Giles,
two adventurous cousins accidentally freeze time on the last day of
summer, and the secrets hidden between the seconds, minutes, and
hours aren't quite the endless fun they expected! Otto and Sheed
are the local sleuths in their zany Virginia town, masters of
unraveling mischief using their unmatched powers of deduction. And
as the summer winds down and the first day of school looms, the
boys are craving just a little bit more time for fun, even as they
bicker over what kind of fun they want to have. That is, until a
mysterious man appears with a camera that literally freezes time.
Now, with the help of some very strange people and even stranger
creatures, Otto and Sheed will have to put aside their differences
to save their town--and each other--before time stops for good. And
don't miss the Legendary Alston Boys in their next adventures: The
Last Mirror on the Left and The Last Chance for Logan County!
