Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (Little Simon Lap Board Books) - Hardcover

The beloved and perennially popular tale of Alexander’s worst day is now available in a lap-friendly, oversize board book edition.

Alexander is not having a great day. He has to endure gum in his hair, sitting in the middle of the backseat, third-best-friend status, no dessert at lunch, lima beans, railroad pajamas, and kissing on TV—all in one day! Maybe he’ll just move to Australia.

Now available as an oversize board book edition—the perfect size for a lap—this funny and endearing story that has delighted readers for more than forty years includes artwork that showcases Alexander (and only Alexander) in full color, underscoring the comic misery of his awful day.
