Have you ever had a day when everything seems to go wrong? You're not alone! See how Alycat tries to get the best out of one of those days in Alycat and the Cattywampus Wednesday, the latest addition to Alysson Foti Bourque's award-winning series. Enter to win a copy along with an adorable Alycat plush toy!
My Review:
Alycat is having the wackiest Wednesday ever. All her daily routines from home to school and back, happen in reserve order. What puzzles her more is that everyone else seems to be fine with the strange changes and acts as if things had been this way all along. Comforted by the company and help of her friends, Alycat is able to enjoy the day anyway. Will everything go back to normal the next day?
Alycat and the Cattywampus Wednesday is a lovely fun book that keeps young readers wondering till the very end why Alycat's Wednesday turns out to be a cattywampus one and how she will react to each abnormality. The bright-colored pictures and the cheerful characters wearing confident smiles combine to make the unusual situation in the story look more funny than scary. Alycat's bizarre yet entertaining experience suggests that a positive mindset, coupled with solid support from friends and family, could help ease fear, confusion, and uncertainty caused by abrupt changes. Just as Alycat's classmate Roux points out, trying things differently can be fun sometimes. The book also includes a list of practical tips for feeling better on a bad day, written with amusing cat humor.
Today is Wednesday, the perfect day to read this uplifting story with your little one and teach them about ways to stay calm and happy in this ever-changing world!
