    About this ebook

    Mimi and Dad's favorite day came after Friday . . . they called it DADURDAY.

    For Mimi, the best day of the week is always Saturday, because she gets to spend it with just her Dad. Every "Dadurday" begins the same way--Mimi and Dad make silly-shaped pancakes, read the comics section of the newspaper and make lists of fun things to do together. But when Dad gets a new work schedule, "Dadurday" is ruined. Can Mimi find a way to still make it a special day for her and dad?

      Mimi enjoys spending Saturdays with her dad.
    • 3/5
      Mimi is a little girl who loves her dad. She enjoys spending Saturdays with him. She renames Saturday to Dadurday since they always do things together on this day. They make breakfast together, go to the library, play in the rain, just to name a few. Things change when her dad begins to work on Saturdays. She gets mad and begs him to stay home. She has no one to play with and becomes really bored. After thinking a while, she decides that Saturdays can still be fun. She makes the traditional pancakes she use to make with her dad, makes party hats and draws on the sidewalk to surprise her dad when he got home. She learns to make the best of Saturday evenings with her dad. I gave this book a low rating because it shows her yelling at her mom and she doesn't speak nicely of her twin siblings. She is selfish. She only thinks of herself. I don't think young children can learn anything from this book.
    • 4/5
      Great book about a girl and her dad. The story starts off with a wonderful dadurday that they share together and all the things they decide to do. All of this stops when Mimi's dad has to start working on Saturdays, which is dadurday. Mimi has a hard time trying to cope with the fact that she no longer gets to spend a special day with dad. But, after her long day she decides to surprise her dad when her gets home. They both find out that even though they no longer get their special day they still love each other, and that is what matters most.
