(4) PS Francine the fox does not want to get up or go to school or paint a picture. But the day has begun, the school bus arrives, and her teacher hands her a brush. By bedtime, she is too busy reciting the poem she didn't want to recite and singing the song she didn't want to sing to go to bed. The animals in the pastel-colored illustrations are somewhat hard to identify in this quiet story about a grumpy day.
