One of my favorite books to share with my students is Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst. This book describes a day where nothing goes right. In fact, Alexander would like nothing more than to just "move to Australia". In the end Alexander discovers that some days are just bad. My students enjoy writing about their own experiences with terrible days following this read-aloud.
Judith Viorst just turned this picture book into an hour long musical. Visit the following links to learn more: http://www.dramaticpublishing.com/viorst.html

At this time it looks like BlogEngine is the preferred blogging
platform out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
