One Fine Day Audiobook

" Cumulative story from an Armenian folktale that won the Caldecott in 1971. Not a big fan of stories that involve peril - this one starts with the fox's tail getting lopped off by a woman with a large knife. I've been accused of misunderstanding the whole depth and importance of difficult situations in children's books, I get it people, I just have children with my sensibilities who were easily upset by these things...so whatever, but don't love it. "

" A beautifully written Armenian folk tale. Can be used to teach multiculturalism. The story teaches ethics and the consequence of stealing. "

" This is a classic tale, a format that is fairly common, with one action building upon and dependent upon another until you get to the end. It is entertaining and has the familiar and comforting repetition that so many children like. Nice, colorful illustrations, too. "

" Fine illustrations, but the Armenian folk tale involving a fox losing his tail is not fun. "

" I wasn't excited by the illustrations or the story in One Fine Day. Although it came out when I was in 1st or 2nd grade, I don't ever remember seeing this book before, which tells me something, too. "

" it starts off with a fox getting its tail cut off and ends with that fox getting his tail SEWN back on. GROSS. "

" This is a great book to use to challenge students with sequencing or to discuss cause and effect. Each new event causes something else to happen because almost every thing the fox encounters need something in order for them to trade with him, so he can eventually get his tail back. "

" An old woman cuts off a fox's tail. He pleads with her to sew it back on but he must get back the milk he stole from her. So he goes to the cow for milk, and he must get grass in exchange for the milk. And so on and so on and so on. "

" fox tries to find his tail.. "

" Caldecott. This book had a good lesson behind it, do not take if it is not yours. The fox drank the old womens milk so she cut of his tail. In order to get his tail back he had a series of events to go through beucase everything had a price to be paid. "

" This is a book that shows both good and bad sides to people. In the end all it takes is one good person to change the day of another. I absolutley adored this book and all the different illistrations in it. I can see why it is a Caldecott Winner. "

" This story builds on itself, adding another phrase with each page. It reverses, visiting what was added in the ending pages. It is long when compared to modern day picture books "

" The illustrations in this book are amazing. I love this little fox! "

" illustrated and retold by Nonny Hogrogian; published by Macmillan; fiction; Caldecott 1972 "

" This story is an award winning picture book and provides greatly illustrated pages that help students connect the pictures to the story to predict. This book provides students with a good moral of doing what is right. This can be used to help students with sequencing and retelling. "

" Working on the Caldecott list! I'm bit mystified why this one won, the pictures are fine and the story is ok, but it didn't really ring any bells for me or the kids. I'm picking another one tomorrow. "

" When a greedy fox steals milk from an old woman, she cuts off his tail and he must arrange a series of bargains with other animals and people to get his tail back. The illustrations and storyline remind me of an old folk tale. Caldecott winner. "

" Fun to read out-loud. I enjoyed going through the list of "Please do this so I can do that and then that and then..." over and over, adding something each time. And I tried to say it faster each time, which made my preschooler laugh. "
