 A Sick Day for Amos McGee.
The 2011 Caldecott Medal winner is A Sick Day for Amos McGee , illustrated by Erin E. Stead, written by Philip C. Stead.
In this tender tale of reciprocity and friendship, zookeeper Amos McGee gets the sniffles and receives a surprise visit from his caring animal friends.
“Endearing, expressive characterization in spare illustrations rendered in muted tones distinguish this timeless picture book.”(ALA Summary)
