Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day


I hesitated so much in reading this book because I thought it would encourage bad behavior. But it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Just at the perfect time when we needed it (in the library when Donovan waited for so long to play in the castle but was shewed away time and again), I spotted it on the shelf. I picked it up and we walked together to a different seating area. By the time we finished it, Donovan was cheerful and ready to go on with a great day. I think he said something like, "That was a REALLy bad day", about the tough time Alexander had, which made our uncomfortable experience that day disappear.
