I read to big kids, little kids, pet kids, mom kids, dad kids, okay... If you have a ear (or two) I can read to you! I'm going to take you on a land of imagination through books! Come sit down and enjoy a book with me. I LOVE to read, and you will too!
3:56 the way Alexander gets in trouble despite being a victim is precisely how my family would sh!t on me, my brother would instigate problems a lot like that and only I got in trouble even for responding in a reasonable manner.
Lately, I've been feeling like it is not only one horrible bad day, it feels more like a lifetime. I feel like my best friend doesn't really see my iMessage or really wants to let me know what's going on in her life. I feel like everyone who has touched my life is just going to abandon me and it hurts that my best friend will not respond to me? I have been feeling like I'm going to lose my best friend and it really hurts.
I went through the same thing with my best friend! Sometimes it’s not our fault. Sometimes we just need to step back and give them space. Sometimes we out grow some people. It hurts moving further and further away from the people we love, but sometimes it’s necessary. Keep being your awesome self! Your friend will come around. They’re loss, not yours. I hope your day gets better! ❤️
Plot Gum stuck in his hair signals the start of a disastrous day for 11-year-old Alexander. One calamity follows another, but when Alexander tells his family about his misadventures, he finds little sympathy. Alexander begins to wonder if bad things happen only to him, but he soon learns that he's not alone when his mother, father, brother and sister all find themselves living through their own calamitous days.
Brothers and Sisters, as it is written in the Book of Job: "Where is the way to the dwelling of light, and as for darkness, where is the place thereof; That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof? Thou knowest it, for thou wast then born, and the number of thy days is great! Hast thou entered the treasuries of the snow, Or hast thou seen the treasuries of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?" (Job 38:19-23 - The LORD answers Job) Brothers, the worst of days are yet to come. The time of trouble and woe when all mankind is set in disaster amid disaster. Yet the days of now they are indeed bad, as all mankind is so are the days in both good and evil. Beloved, for much of my life I thought that each day is good, none can make it not. Until recently I thought on my own ways through the days, how I wished long for the good and not for the evil. Perhaps then a day is surely not good without what makes it so. If we cannot eat or drink or fall into sin or our Brothers or even a gentile fall to these what then are the times? Yet among stone is gold just as good is around awfulness. God takes that gold and refines it with fire making it fine gold. Each day is bad until God makes it good and even Our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ was crucified and died on the cross on the same day and by this day of sorrow came the day of His resurrection. By this God overturned our sorrow and gave us salvation. Brother, be baptized and repent of sinfulness and have steadfast faith in Our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ who is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed is he who partakes in the supper of the Lamb. Amen and Amen. -Ezekiel
This is my life. Literally, things keep happening. Like being screwed out of $200 because the other cleaner claimed the event hall was clean and pocket the money. The event hall wasn’t cleaned and they had me go in and do it right. However I couldn’t get in right away and someone else partly cleaned the event hall and now I’ll only get $100 of that. And to top it all off my phone is having issues and… ITS A NEW PHONE! Yes I am ranting in a comment section on a children book and yes I am having a terrible, no good, very bad, Week.
Yesterday was my 26th birthday and after feeling down in the dumps all week, I tested positive for Covid this morning. I needed to hear this. It was my favorite book as a little kid. Thank you for uploading it.
@@ABCReadtoME No, more specifically, several minor setbacks won't qualify as a bad day in my book. Quality over quantity. (Or in this case, the other way around)
oh my gosh this book is so funny i just want to throw it in the trash... and never take it out, then hope it falls in a sewer and gets destroyed from the water.
I remember when I read this book. But never the sequels. The sequels were never HBO cartoons. Alexander was never colorful. In fact, everybody & everything was colorless. I hope he didn’t have gum in his hair forever.
