A Difficult Day — Eugenie Fernandes

Crumpled sheets, a lumpy pillow and crumbs in the bed mean a sleepless night for Melinda. Waking up grouchy, Melinda's mood goes from bad to worse -- can anything save her day now? An understanding mom makes a grumpy mood go away in this reassuring story that reminds children (and their parents) that everyone has difficult days, and sometimes a hug is all you need to chase the blues away.
