Description
Bea is looking forward to the PERFECT day - her birthday. She can't wait to have the special time with family, presents, treats, and cake! But then things begin to go wrong. When a storm blows in, suddenly nothing is how Bea hoped it would be. None of the guests can come, and the mail can't be delivered with Bea's cards and gifts. Will there even be cake?! Everything seems completely ruined, and Bea's special day turns into a BAD day. Can Bea find a way to be okay-even in the middle of a very disappointing day?
Reassuring and hopeful, this book is a perfect starting point for helping kids learn to face disappointment, practice flexibility, and find fun where they least expect it.
