Book Description:

The Blue Day Book is a wonderful collection of amusing, poignant animal photos and inspirational text designed to lift the spirits of anyone who's got the blues. No one who has lips will be able to read it without smiling; it's guaranteed.The fact is, we all have our bad days-they are an intrinsic part of being human. As prescribed by The Blue Day Book in its delightful photo and text messages, the solution is to see each incident in perspective, recognize that our feelings of failure and loss are not unique, acknowledge the absurdities of our existence, and glory in the potential we all have. In less than 100 sentences, The Blue Day Book conveys this message with great compassion and humor. Its vehicle is charming black-and-white photographs of animals that are strangely human and completely free of judgment or pretension. The humble marriage of easy text and beautiful images takes the reader through the entire evolution of a blue day, examines what it feels like, what causes it, and how to get over it.

Nice book to give as a gift to someone going through a rough patch - I put a copy in a gift basket for a friend and she loved it. Cute pictures, nice sayings that will make you mostly smile, but sometimes a bit teary-eyed!

I love everything this author has done. The pictures are funny & right on target for the witty captions. I'd say this book is guaranteed to cheer up just about anybody! I have given it as a gift as well as simply forced other people to read my copy. I don't really think you can go wrong with it.

A small format book with mostly cute photos of animals with a line or so under text on each page, this is a very quick but uplifting read. I like to pull my copy out when I need a pick-me-up!
