Alycat and the Sunday Scaries by Alysson Foti Bourque

-

Many of us can relate to the dreaded feeling on Sunday that the weekend is almost over and you have to go back to school or work on Monday. In reading this book your little one will learn that Mondays are not so bad and the week can be fun!

Disclosure: I received a copy of this book in order to share my opinion. Thank you to The Children’s Book Review for including me on this tour.


About the Book:

It’s Sunday, the day before the school week begins, and Alycat is nervous. She just knows that Monday is going to be the Mondayest Monday ever! On the playground, Alycat realizes she isn’t the only one suffering from the Sunday Scaries. It’s hard to ride a bike. What if Kit falls? The treehouse is so high. Will Spotty make it safely back down? The kittens band together to overcome their fears, but can they turn the Sunday Scaries into a Sunday Funday? The themes of the books in the Alycat Series all reflect a reliance on friendships, imagination, and creativity toward problem-solving.

Fans of Alycat and her friends will enjoy spotting references to the kittens’ daily adventures within these pages. Tips for a successful lemonade stand are included!

 

Review:

This book is a great addition to the Alycat series! I love cats so this series is perfect for me and perfect to read to my little ones. Alycat is not excited to start the week but she heads out to play with her friends. While they are playing the friends help other friends overcome fears and find things they are excited about in the week to come. This is an inspiring and simple way for everyone to think of something they are not looking forward to. What can they be excited about? What sounds fun? A perfect book to read and talk about with your little one when they are not looking forward to something.

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il
