"I hate school, and I'm sure not looking forward to the 100th day of it," thinks Graham on the first day of school while his teacher plays up the later-in-the-year celebration. Graham's not a strong reader, yet he must get through one hundred books before the big day--also his birthday. Creatively composed mixed-media illustrations reflect Graham's emotions while demonstrating potential hundredth-day projects.
