2008 Notable Children's Book


A Good Day- A picture book about four animal characters that are having a bad day. They include a yellow bird, white dog, orange fox and a little brown squirrel. Eventually things turn around for each one in a postive way. The book also includes a young girl who finds a bird's feather and tucks it behind her ear. She calls out to her mom and says It's a Good Day! It is a book that has simple ink illustrations with beautiful watercolors.
This book teaches readers that from something negative great things can also happen. We are surrounded by so much negativity that finding a book that promotes being positive is a great resource.
