Remember: A hard day ends. Feeling grumpy is okay. Telling someone, getting cozy and resting all help.
Kit's hard day
Read the story first, then answer.
Kit's hard dayKit's day started well. Then his toast landed jam side down, and he knocked over his juice. It rained on the way to school, and Kit forgot his umbrella. In class, Dot bumped the table by accident, and a line ran across his picture. By the time Kit got home, he felt grumpy all the way through. He tried a big smile, but it slipped right off. So he told his grown-up about the toast, the juice, the rain and the picture. His grown-up listened and did not try to fix a thing. Kit felt lighter. They sat by the window with a blanket and warm milk, and in the morning the sun peeked in.
