PreS-Gr 2—In Charlip's delightful classic story, each positive note in Ned's event-filled morning is countered with an unfortunate, nearly disastrous moment. Fortunately for the boy, the day ends on an upbeat event—his birthday party. Colorful spreads depict the surprises, gray tones the avoided mishaps/lucky misses.—Daryl Grabarek, School Library Journal
