What a great way to end 2016 with a mention of Monday Is Wash Day in Elizabeth Bird's School Library Journal blog. She included this book in her "Best Picture Books of 2016" post and had this to say:

Of all the books I failed to review in 2016, this may be the book I regret the most. A picture book about a 1948 washday doesn’t sound too terribly exciting, but Sundby and Blackham transcend both setting and time period. It’s sublime.

We agree! Have you checked out Monday Is Wash Day?
