A New Day

Sunday quits. She's tired of being taken for granted, and she wants to do some things for herself (like bake sourdough and learn Sanskrit...like the Buddhists). Off she goes, and the rest of the days must find a replacement. The auditions begin, with over-the-top ideas for a new day including WorstVice-PresidentsDay and Big-BurpDay and SnowmenInABlizzardEatingMarshmallowsDay...so many wacky days strut their stuff in front of the other days...but nothing seems quite right until...

Yes, I hesitated a bit before falling into adoration of this book (wasn't there another book where the crayons decided to leave their profession?) but once I actually got into the story, I couldn't put it down, with all its silliness and quirky humor and rollicking good fun.
