It’s a bad day for Bird, Dog, Fox, and Squirrel. But then… things change, and they all find happiness! Kevin Henkes, author of A Good Day, tells a quick and simple tale with bright, animated images, and easy, flowing words. Henkes has a knack for writing in a style that is easy for children to understand. In this book, he uses repetitive words that teach emotion and express “happiness” and “sadness.” The images contain the same bright colors, while the font remains bold and dark. This contrast makes the words stand out, and easy to read. This book could serve as a platform to discussing nature with your child as well. You can create your own outdoor scavenger hunt, and find Bird’s lost feather, or Squirrel’s lost nut. See this book listed in our catalog
