Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Readers of all ages will relate to the travails of this harried but loving family; the authors infuse the tale with zippy rhymes and positive, meaningful messaging, emphasizing the importance of venting and keeping a sense of perspective. . . . A feel-good tale of a frazzled family finding a way to unwind." --Kirkus Reviews "Each character's mini-crisis is handled with humor, and the narrative flows briskly from one dilemma to the next. The day ends on a comforting note as the family comes together for dinner, reinforcing the idea that what matters most isn't a perfect day but being together through the imperfect ones." --School Library Journal "Some picture books feel instantly familiar--in the best possible way. Just Another Perfect Day is one of those warm, wonderfully chaotic family stories that makes parents nod knowingly while kids giggle at every page." --Canadian Cookbooks
