Description

A Day Without Toast is a children's book featuring Christopher J. Bean and his very bad day, which all starts when he decides not to eat his morning toast!

-----------------------------------------------------------
EXCERPT --
Young Christopher Julius Bean refused to eat his toast today.
He quite simply turned up his nose and boldly declared, “NO WAY.”
He stared at the top piece melting a double pat of butter.
“That butter is trouble,” he pronounced with a mutter.

"What a surprising declaration,” his family was thinking,
and they all froze for a moment, just breathing and blinking.
For breakfast was Christopher’s favorite meal of the day,
and next to toast, all other food was just merely okay.

Yet, for a reason known only to the young boy himself,
he searched high and low from upon the pantry shelf.
Soon he pleaded his mother to make pancakes with syrup.
She nodded while adding, "Cheer up, son, cheer up!"

Yes, Christopher J. didn't eat his toast today...

Instead, he had pile upon pile of pancakes galore
with drippy, sticky syrup trickling down to the floor.---

The illustrations are created by scraps of paper cut and arranged to form the day's events Christopher has to endure. If you click on the small boxes above, you will see examples of a few of the pages and the illustrations.

Children and adults alike will enjoy the rhyming nature of the text and the visual impact of the paper images. One of the goals of this book is to introduce some new vocabulary to its young audience through hearing it in the context of the story.

Softcover, 40 pages, 7" x 7"

I also have a hardcover version with dust jacket. Please convo with me if you would prefer that and I can tell you the price for the book and shipping.
