What a difference a day can make! Life's an awesome adventure, filled with highs and lows--sometimes all in the same day. This delightful book explores the idea of life's shifting sands. Through simple, bouncy verses and charming, colorful illustrations depicting a variety of scenarios, readers learn that some days will be filled with triumphs, friendship, and excitement, while others might deliver disappointment, hurt, sadness, fear, loneliness, and self-doubt. In other words, life isn't static. The author and the illustrator present relatable ideas and visuals that will help children easily grasp the message. Happy days are described as yellow; sad ones are blue. The cheerful rhymes and bright, lively images--a mix of full-page art and vignettes--work together well, using the concept of opposites to help kids compare the inevitable ups and downs of daily life: "Some days are fast! Others seem slow." "Some days are 'Yes.' Others all 'No!'" Children will feel reassured by the book's auspicious premise that no matter what's occurred today, a brand-new tomorrow is inevitably on the horizon. Characters are racially diverse; one light-skinned child is depicted using a wheelchair. After reading, kids may want to volunteer their own ways to describe yellow and blue days. Conveys thought-provoking ideas in a gentle, easily comprehensible manner. (Picture book. 4-7)COPYRIGHT(2024) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
