On a Magical Do-Nothing Day

Description

The New York Times best illustrated kids book of 2017 and you will see why!

This is a lovely children's book that delights in the joys of exploration and a child's unadulterated wonder at adventure.  

We watch as a boring, rainy day of screen time becomes an afternoon of curiosity and creativity, as the child follows the mushrooms deeper into the forest, digs deep in the mud for treasures and drinks raindrops as an animal would, looking at the world anew. 

It's wonderful to be reminded of the transformation that nature can have on all of us, on our imagination and on our moods! 

A rich and refreshing kids picture book.
