Book Overview

A Latino-centric movie adaptation is now streaming on Disney+

From children's book legend Judith Viorst comes the perennially popular tale of Alexander's worst day. Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is a story that belongs on every child's bookshelf.

Alexander wakes up with gum in his hair and quickly realizes it's going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. From missing out on the window seat in the car to getting in trouble at school, nothing seems to go his way. As the day unravels, Alexander's mood gets worse, leaving him feeling cranky and convinced moving to Australia might be the only solution.

With relatable humor and timeless illustrations, this children's book classic gently explores emotions, behavior, and the ups and downs of everyday life, making it the perfect story for teaching kids about feelings and how to handle a bad day.

Great addition to your library in Spanish

This is a great book for those of us who want to raise our children bilingually and equally wonderful for Spanish-speakers. The Spanish is fun--I also love the repetition of "el día terrible, horrible..." The fact that the names are not translated is fine--not all English names have a Spanish translation and vice-versa. I believe it keeps the integrity of the original version and the Alexander character.

ME VOY A AUSTRALIA !

Qué dice un niño al que TODO le sale mal ? "Me voy a Australia !". Los dibujos - en blanco y negro - están espléndidamente ilustrados, la cara de Alexander es indescriptible por su picardía. Un libro para leer y ver con los hijos a la hora de dormir. Un libro alentador, especial para aquellos niños "difíciles"

Repetition is the key to learning

Our whole family enjoys reading this book. With its repetition of the "horrible, terrible..." day, we now can all read those parts together. And when the kids have a bad day, we can refer to the book (and talk about going to Australia). It helps to make light of a bad day.
