Description
Imagine your whole day lived backwards, from beginning to end. When you get up, you'd put on your overcoat first, then your shirt and pants, and over those your underwear, because after all, backwards is backwards, and on a backwards day backwards is the way everything has to be. You'd walk downstairs backwards and sit at the table backwards, and when your parents greeted you in the morning you'd say, of course, Good night.
But how long can backwards day go on? Just long enough for a bright little boy to reverse the spell he's put on the whole household and make everything go back to normal.
The Backward Day is a charming 1950 picture book by the Caldecott-prize-winning team of Marc Simont and Ruth Krauss. Simont's bold illustrations bring to life a humorous and engaging reversal of ordinary reality that will enchant young children and their parents.
