About The Book
In a world where the days of the week come to life, Monday learns to let go of negativity and accept herself for who she is.
It’s pretty tough being Monday – you’re not named after a god like Thursday, and you’re certainly not a two-day party like Saturday and Sunday. Instead, you’re the start of the week, when people have to wake up early and head back to school and work. Monday even has a pile of complaint letters to prove that nobody likes her… but wait, what’s in that sparkly envelope?
Nobody Likes Monday is a story about the impact of people’s perceptions of ourselves, and the fact that we all have value; we just need to learn to see it. When Monday is feeling down, she tries to change, but only meets more dissatisfaction. It is only when she begins to see her own strengths and gifts that she finds joy in her role and in her life.
Told with vibrant illustrations and light-hearted humour, Nobody Likes Monday highlights the importance of self-acceptance and individuality. It emphasizes that everyone, no matter how they perceive themselves, has a unique value to offer, gently encouraging children to see beyond the negatives and to recognize their own talents and strengths.

Raves and Reviews
“This is a beautifully illustrated picture book that carries the important message of the impact of people’s perceptions of ourselves, and how letting go of negativity can change your life for the better. Nobody Likes Monday is a story about acceptance, and having the confidence to know your worth and believe in yourself.”
– In The Good Books
“Using days of the week to portray that others are better than yourself is an empathetic and clever way of showing readers that you are just as good if not better than others.”
– School Days Magazine
“This is a highly original story that not only takes the reader on a romp through the days of the week with all the activities that can inspire but also encourages some self-reflection on how we perceive ourselves. A valuable addition to any focus on mindfulness, emotional intelligence and positive mental health.”
