Backwards Day - Fun Children’s Book for Grades 1 & 2 | Scholastic #247680 (License: Personal Use)

The book cover features a vibrant classroom scene where a girl in a purple dress and a boy wearing an upside-down orange cap point to a chalkboard with the alphabet written backwards (Z to A). Above the board, colorful student artwork-including a rocket, rainbow, butterfly, and bear-adds charm, while the Scholastic logo and grade-level indicator confirm its educational purpose. Illustrated by Jana Kurisu and authored by Joan Holub, it invites early readers into a day of joyful role reversal and imaginative play.
