Description



About the Book



It's been more than 30 years since Alexander had to endure gum in his hair, the middle of the backseat, and lima beans--all in one day. Now, for the first time, it's all happening in color--sort of. While Alexander appears in color, the rest of the art remains in black and white.



Book Synopsis



A Latino-centric movie adaptation is now streaming on Disney+!

From children's book legend Judith Viorst comes the perennially popular tale of Alexander's worst day. Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is a story that belongs on every child's bookshelf.

Alexander wakes up with gum in his hair and quickly realizes it's going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. From missing out on the window seat in the car to getting in trouble at school, nothing seems to go his way. As the day unravels, Alexander's mood gets worse, leaving him feeling cranky and convinced moving to Australia might be the only solution.

With relatable humor and timeless illustrations, this children's book classic gently explores emotions, behavior, and the ups and downs of everyday life, making it the perfect story for teaching kids about feelings and how to handle a bad day.
