Illustrated by
Michel Backes.
A young fox has her good mood deflated by her grumpy mom. In return, Anna shuts her mother out all evening: "No, not you! I want Daddy!" The sleek, heavily outlined art follows the family as the contagious bad mood runs its course. Readers will sigh with relief when Mama apologizes, restoring the balance and giving one and all the freedom to say "yes" again.
