A poignant--and laugh-out-loud funny--story about our busy lives and how we can fix our mistakes to show our friends how much we care by world-renowned artist and picture book creator Oliver Jeffers. It's Bridget's birthday, and she thinks it would be fun to spend the day with friends. But Royal has places to go, Rodney has to see a man about a dog, Regis has to wash his hair, and Pearl has a list of items she needs to cross off as quickly as she can. Bridget's friends are all too busy to hang out! Will Bridget have to spend her birthday all alone? In a story that shows how friends are more important than the busy-ness of a day, Oliver Jeffers' bold and brilliant art pair with a powerful story that makes readers realize what truly matters. Another masterpiece from the internationally bestselling picture book creator of Here We Are and Begin Again.
