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. 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's bold and brilliant art pairs with a powerful story that makes
readers realise what truly matters.
