What happens when one bad day feels like the end of the world?
For Mercedes, one accident after another turns an ordinary day into one she will never forget. From a stubbed toe and spilled juice to soaked homework, a bully and missing the bus, everything seems to go wrong.
By the time she gets home, Mercedes is carrying more than just a bad day. She is carrying big feelings she does not know how to express.
With the love, patience and encouragement of her parents, Mercedes discovers that it is okay to admit when she is hurting—and that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Created for children ages 4–9, this beautifully illustrated picture book can help young readers:
- Recognize and express their emotions
- Understand that everyone has difficult days
- Build resilience after setbacks
- Feel safe talking to trusted adults
- Remember that they are loved, even on their hardest days
No Mom and Dad, I Am Not OK begins a heartfelt series created to help children navigate big emotions, find their voice and know they are never alone.
Written by E.D. Wallace, M.S.
