A busy boy and his dog learn to slow down and enjoy life together in this lyrical, rhyming picture book.
Reviews
Many people would benefit from the important messages urged in this book—slow down, breathe deeply, and take a walk in nature. Readers meet a child rushing to complete the responsibilities of each day. With hair flying and a backpack on, the child is always hurrying at home and at school in order to “win” and “reach the top.” Finally, a spread with just the word STOP brings a halt to the child’s breakneck pace. The child takes a break, makes a wish, goes on a walk, and listens to “the forest talk.” The rhymes in the latter half of the story are gentle and sweet, as the child and a steadfast dog enjoy the simple pleasures of life in a beautifully green world. VERDICT For collections seeking a secular message of paths to peace, this unexpected admonishment turns into a well-paced meditation for children and adults alike.Reviewed by Sally James, South Hillsborough Elem.
