Allie is a little alpaca with big dreams: to make sure that each day is absolutely perfect in absolutely every way. That doesn’t seem too much to ask . . . does it?

Allie greets each day with a grin. This, she tells herself, is a NEW day. A promising day. And it will be a 100 PERCENT PERFECT, FRUSTRATION-FREE day!

Too bad reality doesn’t cooperate. Determined to master multiple skills, from tying her shoes to drawing an amazing picture to baking incredible cookies, Allie fails again and again, stomping and groaning and grumbling and moaning. Intent upon perfection, Allie misses a lot of fun along the way. Fortunately, little brother Alfie is there to remind her to laugh at herself and enjoy the process of getting to be pretty good. But not perfect.

Sometimes finding the funny can make everything feel just a little more sunny. And some days can feel just about perfect, regardless of what happens.
Megan Wagner Lloyd decided she wanted to be a writer when she was eight years old. That turned out pretty well. Today, she is the author of picture books and graphic novels, including the Indie bestseller Squished, the Super Pancake series, and the Indie bestseller, Eisner-nominated Allergic.

Ellie Snowdon lives by the sea in South Wales, UK. After completing her drawing degree at Bristol, she picked up her pens and pencils and moved to Cambridge to study children’s book illustration, where she was twice highly commended for the Macmillan Prize. Since then, Ellie has developed a real love for creating characters . . . the good, the bad, and the downright odd!
