Alexander’s bad day is one of my favorite books to read aloud! So relatable! Who doesn’t have a litany of complaints! The bath is too hot! The cat prefers his brother! And those damn train pjs! So many injustices when you’re little!

Oh man, Good Dog, Carl pulls at my heartstrings. The illustrations! The accurate depiction of Rottweiler purity! I read that book to my son every night for years and I will keep that on my shelf forever. Wow I just got more emotional that I expected!
