A PERFECT DAY

Sarah S. Brannen

A seagull and a crab find friendship and compromise in this sweet and humorous story about the meaning of perfection.
The sky is blue, the sun is warm, the breeze is cool--it's a perfect day for Seagull, perched on a rock in the sea. That is, until crabby Crab comes along and points out all of the day's flaws! There's a cloud in the sky, a smelly boat in the distance, and the rock that they're sitting on is covered in barnacles.

In this sweet and funny story about finding happiness amidst flaws, Seagull and Crab learn that nothing is more perfect than spending time with friends.

Using a variety of perspectives to highlight each new detail that changes viewers' understanding of the scene, the attractive art, along with the snappy text, leaves plenty of room for the humor to stand out in this tribute to the ups and downs of a day - and a friendship.

A sweet, simple friendship story buoyed by sophisticated art.

[T]his inviting picture book explores how companionship can be the sweetest reward of all... A timeless tale of embracing friendship among differing points of view. Great for storytime or one-on-one sharing.
