Sunday quit, just like that. She said she was tired of being a day. And so the other days of the week had no choice but to advertise- "WANTED- A NEW DAY. Must be relaxing, tranquil, and replenishing. Serious inquires only. " Soon lots of hopefuls arrived with their suggestions, such as Funday, Bunday, Acrobaturday, SuperheroDay, and even MonstersWhoResembleJellyfishDay! Things quickly got out of hand . . . until one more candidate showed up- a little girl with a thank-you gift for Sunday. The girl suggested simply a nice day--a day to be kind. And her gratitude made a calendar' s worth of difference to Sunday, who decided she didn' t need to quit after all. When we appreciate each other a little bit more, all the days of the week can be brand-new days where everything is possible.
Bright art captures the mania, with cotton-candy hues representing each of the anthropomorphic days . . . A humorous, meandering approach to a life lesson about leading every day with benevolence. --Kirkus[T]he amount of silliness carries the story through . . . With their oddball shapes and candy-colored hues, the days each have a distinct personality [and] make vivid, solid anchor points as the chaos around them grows. --BCCBIn this amusing spoof of talent competitions . . . the creators have something more in mind than giving readers a highly inventive tickle. --Publishers WeeklySantat' s iconic style launches these antics in vivid, expressive illustrations; his pages are saturated with color and, with the funny word-bubble text, give this a graphic novel feel . . . Occasional rhymes provide a sing-song quality that appears at choice moments in the vibrant narrative. Enjoyably executed, this story emphasizes the importance of kindness in a world that sometimes forgets. --School Library Journal
