Books with title The Very Bad Day

The day starts off calm and two children enjoy playing in the sandpit. Jake wishes there was something exciting to do like play on the beach or go to a birthday party with balloons. Gradually, the wind increases as a gale blows in. When the tree nearby falls onto their roof, Jake is confused about whether his wish for something exciting to happen caused the disaster - or was it those ants he saw under the tree? Parents will love reading this story and children will enjoy listening to the many enchanting descriptions of the beach and the weather changing. A great story that has been published in the Australian School magazine not once, but twice. Older children will also love the escalating excitement of a day that changes from calm, to very windy, to disastrous and how the children and their parents cope with it all.

For busy grown-ups and the children who love them, here is a charming picture book about the best way to spend a sunny day, kid-style versus adult-style. Big Mouse works in the garden-digging, planting seeds, and picking weeds. It's hard work, and he'd love some help from Little Mouse. But his young friend seems too preoccupied with daydreams and games to lend a paw. Just when an exhausted Big Mouse has had enough of Little Mouse's laziness, Little Mouse proves that his day has been busy, too. Big Mouse and Little Mouse, stars of the bedtime book The Very Noisy Night, will amuse parents and children with another all-too-familiar battle of wills. Their lively story is paired with colorful, cluttered scenes in which clothespins, sink plugs, forks, and other cheerful household detritus find second use as mouse tools and furniture-a homey setting for a true-to-life tale.

Lying awake on the floor, Tom cried out and made a weak play for his Winchester. He was stopped abruptly by the butt of Kingsley’s heavy shotgun. Tom slumped back, dazed and bleeding. Kingsley relieved Tom of the rifle."I could of killed you, but I didn’t. But I will if you give me any trouble." Kingsley gave Tom a real close look at the gaping muzzles of the Baker 10 gauge.Kingsley rolled Tom onto his stomach tying his hands behind his back, relishing the moans this caused. He pulled Tom’s boots off throwing them across the small cabin. Standing, he lashed out and kicked the man savagely in the ass, “Get the hell up, boy.”Bad Day is a story of violence and brutality, of sudden frontier justice, but also of courage and enduring love. The story takes place in the Arizona Territory at a time when the only law enforcement outside the capital city of Prescott was a few men wearing a star. When one of them goes bad, all hell breaks loose.•Print: 978-1-938586-72-9; $13.95•eBook: 978-1-938586-73-6; $5.99

Life Isn’t Fair is a series of children’s books that skip the ‘once upon a time’ and happy endings, instead teaching lessons through real life events. In Harambe and the Very Bad Day, children learn not to judge a book by its cover and to think before they react. Or else, something very bad may happen. The story follows Harambe, an innocent victim in a crime of circumstance. His joy is soon taken away as an unfortunate event turns his life upside down.

P.J. Funnybunny sometimes behaved badly. But THE VERY BAD BUNNY was his cousin Blinky, whose exploits will amuse all young children. Fans of P.J. will also like his first book, IT'S NOT EASY BEING A BUNNY. 'I can read it all by myself' is the Beginner Books motto, and behind it is an understanding of how important it is for children to take pride and pleasure in their early reading. Beginner Books have been designed to appeal directly to children through the use of humour, rhyme, and bright pictures that can be 'read' even by the non-reading child. Some Beginner Books are simple stories, others are hilarious nonsense: both types have been designed to give children confidence and make them want to go on reading.

The Bad-Day Book and The Bad-Day Journal were created by MYSTKDZ to help lay a foundation for children (and care-givers!) to learn more about how to deal with times of difficulty. Let's face it, no one likes to think about bad days but truly everyone has them. One of the most valuable roles as a caregiver is to direct them to the Father so that they are able to move through grief or anger in a way that builds up their spirit and reliance on the Lord.
