A Sick Day for Amos McGee | Philip C. Stead, Erin E. Stead

“Amos had a lot to do at the zoo, but he always made time to visit his good friends.”

I love reading this book because it‘s silly and shows true friendship throughout the book. The kids always love it because it‘s unrealistic as far as the animals go but has true friendship.

A Sick Day for Amos McGee by Phillip C. Stead was published in 2010 and won The Caldecott Medal in 2011. This was a story about a zoo keeper who always made time to spend individual time with all his animals at the zoo. One day he got sick and couldn‘t make it to work. The next thing he knew the animals arrived at his house to take care of him out of the kindness of their hearts.

I enjoyed reading this story because it is a fun read with lots of meaning behind it. I would share this book with my students because there are lessons to be learned about friendship and kindness in the story.

A Sick Day for Amos McGee won the Caldecott Medal in 2011. This story is about a man who has animal friends that he takes care of everyday. The man, Amos, feels sick one day and does not make it to see the animals, so instead the animals come and take care of him. I thought the illustrations of the animals were realistic looking and gave a sense of reality to the story.

We love this one! It feels like a classic - the illustrations are soft and pleasant, and the story completely charming. A feel-good story of friendship between zookeeper, Amos, and the animals. When Amos isn‘t able to go and do his regular activities with his zoo friends, they come to him!

Gissy @mabell Awww! That‘s beautiful! Take pictures and that first book needs to be in her memorabilia trunk 💖 8mo
mabell @Gissy Such a good idea to have a memorabilia trunk! And including our favorite books is perfect! 8mo
Gissy @mabell I have watched videos from youtubers showing their childhood favorite books and I wished I had saved some of favorite at those ages. I guess you are going to save one book per year because Sophie is going to grew up around books☺️There will be too many books in her life. 7mo

A Sick Day for Amos McGee is a 2011 Caldecott award winning book. This is a nice little story about Amos and his friend that he would visit every day at the zoo. One day Amos awakes with the sniffles and sneezes and decides to take a day off. However, he was dearly missed by his friends at the zoo so they had to do something about that.
