Maybelline Has A Very. Bad. Day (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994352809)

Maybelline is a playful young goat living on the farm with her mama, sister, and barnyard friends. But today, everything seems to be going wrong!

From the moment she wakes up missing her sick friend Ellie, one mishap follows another. Whether it's getting bonked by grumpy Aunt Ivy, pricked by thorns, or stuck in the fence, for poor Maybelline, nothing is going right. Will this rotten day ever end? When Maybelline accidentally spills everyone's acorn snack in the mud, her friends are NOT happy. Add a stinging shot from the vet, a nip from the herding dog, and a tumble into a muddy puddle, and you have one very bad day indeed.

But snuggled safely with her mama that night, Maybelline discovers an important truth: bad days happen, but they don't last forever.

Young children will see themselves in Maybelline and understand exactly how she feels during her tough day. In this social-emotional journey, Maybelline learns how to overcome obstacles, navigate big feelings, and count on friends and family to help her. This is a relevant story about resilience and friendship which will engage young children and encourage follow-up discussion. The questions provided at the end of the book may assist parents in finding conversation points.

Perfect for ages 3-6.
