Told in a series of dramatic odes to her day's annoyances,
Alexander (of the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day ) has
got NOTHING on this girl whose day just gets worse and worse! Oh
Too Much Milk in My Cereal! Soggy, squishy! Boggy, mushy! You
turned my crispy into gushy! Sometimes the little bumps in our days
can feel much bigger than they are. And when they start multiplying
. . . oh, what a bad day it can become! Told in a series of
dramatic odes to a day's annoyances, Ode to a Bad Day lets children
and caregivers alike find the humor and compassion in the days that
could have gone better-and encourages readers to look forward to a
better day . . . tomorrow. TIMELESS TOPIC: Classic in sensibility
but with fresh, sharp wit, this book touches on a truly universal
topic with an authentic voice young readers will recognize and
identify with. The struggles of the main character immediately
capture the drama of childhood without making the world seem
totally hopeless and antagonistic. READ ALOUD: This picture book is
riddled with rhyme and chock-full of humor in every stanza-perfect
for read-aloud occasions, bedtime, or any moment a kid needs
cheering up on a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.
SELF-RELIANCE: In celebrating frustration, tedium, and boredom,
this book also emphasizes the value of remaining positive facing
life's various difficulties. You can be upset and still be a
regular person; you can have a bad day and still rhyme about it.
BACK-TO-SCHOOL REASSURANCE: Perfect for kids who are nervous about
starting school or struggling with any less-than-ideal moments in
life. EDUCATIONAL INFO INCLUDED: After reading through the fun,
rhyming narrative, kids can read on to learn more about what an ode
is, how to make one, and even have the opportunity to create their
own. Perfect for: • Great read-aloud option for parents,
teachers, and librarians looking for funny kids' books •
Starting-school or back-to-school book for young readers •
Reassuring book for kids who experience anxiety or struggle to get
through bad days • Fans of humor, children's poetry, and books
that celebrate big feelings • Readers of popular children's books
like If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready for
Kindergarten, Cranky Bear, and The Seven Silly Eaters
