Hooray! Our friends are back! Join Amos and the gang for a brand new adventure that ends in a very special surprise!
Ten years after the phenomenally successful, Caldecott Medal-winning classic, A Sick Day for Amos McGee, we get to meet back up with the gang in a brand new, heartwarming story.

Amos McGee, a friendly zookeeper, is very considerate and always on time. But after a late night planning a surprise for all his friends, Amos is tired. So tired that he falls asleep during breakfast and misses his bus to the zoo!

Now he knows he won't have time for the surprise he planned for his friends. Unless . . . maybe his friends can step in and help him out.

Philip Stead's gently humorous tale of friendship and kindness satisfies fans of the first book while Erin Stead's elegant drawings bring a whole new life to a beloved classic.

THE BEST CURE FOR A COLD might just be a visit from your closest friends.
Winner of the 2011 Caldecott Medal and 2010 Best Illustrated Books award from the New York Times.

Amos McGee, a friendly zookeeper, always made time to visit his good friends at the zoo. He'd play chess with the elephant and run races with the Tortoise (who never ever lost). He'd sit quietly with the shy penguin, lend a handkerchief to the rhinoceros with a runny nose, and read stories at sunset to the owl, who was afraid of the dark.

But one morning, "Ah-choo!" he woke up with the sniffles, the sneezes, and the chills. One thing was sure, he would not be making it to work that day.

Meanwhile, at the zoo the animals patiently waited for their friend. When he didn't show up they suspected something was wrong and took a bus to visit him, as any good friends would do.

Here is a wonderfully old fashioned story of some very loyal friends, with spectacular drawings by a highly talented artist, Erin Stead, making her picture book debut.
