A new door opens when a door closes. Alice Ann pictures her life squeezed at the bottom of a Family Memo Board of summer specials; a family move, a new baby's arrival, and a holiday, that outweigh Alice Ann's 4th of July birthday...until an invitation from Uncle Spurge opens a new door of adventure and Alice Ann celebrates her own delicious event. While everyone at Liberty Cafe is waiting for Alice Ann to arrive, readers get a peek at what Alice Ann is doing in Hayden's clever miniature cartoon drawings. Text rhythm and repetition lead to the delicious event and guarantee fun listening and story time read-alouds. Hayden's illustrations are a visual feast. A mix of party ideas includes a chart of red, white, and blue breakfasts that kids can make with minimal supervision and online extras...party cards, ideas for a game, Breakfast Table, and a companion coloring book downloadable on images-press.com.
