Alexander is having a very bad day! All day, worse and worse things keep happening to him. He contemplates moving to Australia to get away from all of his misfortune. His mother reminds him that sometimes, bad days happen, no matter where you live.
The illustrations are appealing to children, yet still represent a realistic setting.
Students can reflect on a time when they had a bad day and come up with ways to handle difficult situations.
