Everything Will Be OK

by Anna Dewdney, Judy Schachner (Illustrator), Natalie Naudus (Read by)

Overview

The bestselling creators of Llama Llama and Skippyjon Jones bring warmth and humor to a story with a comforting message we could all use when times are tough: everything will be OK.

Nothing is going right for little bunny today.
His sandwich has jelly instead of cheese.
He's lost his kite.
Ow! And he's stubbed his toe!
But while some days can feel more sad than happy, there's always a bright spot on the horizon. Anna Dewdney and Judy Schachner perfectly blend rhyme, humor, and comfort to show readers the way out of a tough spot--no matter if it's big or small.

About the Author

Anna Dewdney was a teacher, mother, and enthusiastic proponent of reading aloud to children. She continually honed her skills as an artist and writer and published her first Llama Llama book in 2005. Her passion for creating extended to home and garden and she lovingly restored an eighteenth-century farmhouse in southern Vermont. She wrote, painted, gardened, and lived there with her partner, Reed, her two daughters, two wirehaired pointing griffons, and one bulldog. Anna passed away in 2016, but her spirit will live on in her books.

Best known for her Skippyjon Jones series, Judy Schachner has illustrated many of her own stories, including the much-loved Grannyman and its companion book, Bits & Pieces. A #1 New York Times Bestseller, Judy is also known for her spirited reading of the Skippyjon stories, for which she won the first E. B. White Read Aloud Award. She lives in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.

Editorial Reviews

Fans of the Llama, Llama series will find the late Dewdney’s characteristic rhymes on display in this book about keeping perspective on life’s challenges. Whether it’s a stubbed toe, a lost kite, or a bad dream, reiterative, gently upbeat prose reassures readers that “everything will be OK” and prompts them to take comfort in family and friends. “Days are happy./ Days are sad.// Hold your mommy./ Hold your dad.// Whatever happens,/ love will stay.// Hold the ones you love today./ Everything will be OK.” Skippyjon Jones series creator Schachner employs a quilt-like range of colors and techniques—watercolor, acrylic, gouache, collage—in homey illustrations that conceptualize the story of a fluffy brown bunny navigating daily ups and downs with a small blue feline, making for a sympathetic water-under-the-bridge tale. Ages 2–5. (Feb.)
