[ 책 소개 ]
Caldecott Medal 수상작가인 Kevin Henkes의 2007년도 신작이며, 2007년도 미국에서 가장 많이 판매된 베스트셀러 그림책 중의 한 권입니다.
노란 새, 하얀 강아지, 주황색 여우, 그리고 갈색 다람쥐 등 4마리의 동물에게 오늘은 아주 재수가 없는 날입니다. 노란 새는 가장 아끼는 꼬리 깃털을 잃어 버렸으며, 하얀 개는 목끈이 정원 펜스에 엉키는 바람에 꼼짝달씩을 못하게 되었고, 오렌지색 여우는 엄마가 어디에 있는지 찾을 수 없었으며, 갈색 다람쥐는 도토리를 개울물에 빠트리고 말았지요. 하지만 운이 없는 날은 곧 변해서 재수가 좋은 날로 바뀌게 됩니다. 다람쥐는 훨씬 더 큰 도토리를 발견하게 되고, 여우는 몸을 돌렸을 때 활짝 웃고 있는 엄마 여우를 발견하였으며, 강아지는 엉킨 목줄을 스스로 풀 수 있었고, 노란 새는 깃털에 관해서는 곧 잊어 버리고 어느 때 보다도 높게 하늘 위로 날아 올라갈 수 있었습니다.
그리고 정원에서 노란새가 잃어버린 예쁜 깃털을 발견한 소녀는 엄마에게 뛰어가며 소리칩니다. "Mama! What a good day!"...
운이 좋은 날과 운이 나쁜 날은 자신이 생각하기 나름이므로 긍정적인 사고를 갖고 살아야 한다는 점을 깨닫게 해줍니다.
튼튼한 하드커버책입니다.

Book Description
It started out as a bad day for little yellow bird, little white dog, little orange fox, and little brown squirrel. Until . . .
A discovery, and love, and luck and persistence, and a different point of view changed all that. What can turn a bad day into a good day? You decide.
Child Magazine
"It was a bad day....Little yellow bird lost his favorite tail feather." Three other creatures endure similar mishaps, but everything works out in the end (especially for a little girl who finds a yellow feather for her hair). Award-winning Henkes reassures young kids that all is right with the world, using bright, expressive watercolors and a few well-chosen words. (ages 1 to 3)
The March 2007 issue of Child magazine
Children's Literature
Everyone is having a bad day! From little yellow bird's lost tail feather to little orange fox's lost mother, the animals have good reasons to be distressed. How can little white dog get untangled? What will little brown squirrel eat now that she's lost her nut? How can they turn a bad day into a good one? Caldecott Medal-winning author/illustrator Kevin Henkes begins with a simple premise; then, with economy of words and engaging illustrations, he skillfully transforms a common theme into a powerful message about looking for the positive in every situation. With luck, determination, and persistence, each animal finds happiness, as does the little girl who lives nearby. She discovers a yellow feather and calls to her mother, "Mama! What a good day!" The book's final illustration shows the interrelatedness of this circular story's characters, revealing the girl's cottage with its yard populated by colorful little creatures. An ideal book for sharing with lap-readers and beginning readers alike, the easy text is perfectly matched by the bright watercolor illustrations. Henkes' fans will find his latest book a delightful combination of styles found in his previous works.
School Library Journal
Employing the thick lines and uncluttered illustrations reminiscent of his work in Kitten's First Full Moon (Greenwillow, 2004), Henkes tells the story of four creatures who start out having a bad day. A bird loses his favorite feather, a dog gets her leash tangled in a fence, a fox loses his mother, and a squirrel drops her nut. But then, the squirrel finds an even bigger nut, the fox is reunited with his mother, the dog frees her leash, and the bird discovers he can fly higher than ever, even without his feather. The animals' triumphant expressions and perky postures, in sharp contrast to their former dejected demeanors, bear witness to the fact that the bad day has turned out to be a good one after all. In a surprising twist, a young girl finds the bird's feather, "tuck[s] it behind her ear," and runs to her mother shouting, "What a good day!" A reprise of all four creatures in the last scene as the excited child seeks out her parent is the perfect conclusion. Full-page, pastel-hued watercolor-and-ink illustrations appear framed opposite each page of large, brief text. This gentle story affords an opportunity to introduce the very young to ways of dealing with life's small disappointments. A fine choice for the lap set.
Kirkus Reviews
What makes a good day good? This deceptively simple work opens with calamity: Little yellow bird has lost his favorite tail feather; little white dog's leash has gotten tangled up in the fence; little orange fox has lost his mother; and little brown squirrel has dropped her nut. "But then . . . " The ellipsis has magic in it, turning all these bad days into good. Each creature's turnaround unfolds in reverse order, small shifts in behavior and attitude making the change. Henkes uses the bold lines and serene compositions that were the hallmark of his Caldecott Medal-winning Kitten's First Full Moon (2004), adding sunny watercolors for an appropriately cheery whole. The full-page illustrations, framed in the same brown ink that delineates each animal, appear opposite the minimal text, allowing the child reader to absorb each scene in its entirety with the turn of a page. Rounding out the pleasing circularity of events is a little girl's happy discovery of little yellow bird's feather: "Mama! What a good day!" A glorious celebration of the simple joys of childhood.
