"Each part of the year
brings lots of good reasons
to treasure the gifts
we find in each season."
What a beautiful story that expresses that each one of us should take a moment to be grateful for the simple joys in life. This book reflects on spending time with your family, explaining the importance of spending time with your children, and being a huge part of your children's bedtime rituals each night.
Its the small things in life that help people to recall the memories of times long forgot....of memories that bring smiles to your face.
I truly loved the illustrations in this book and especially the ones showing the animals all cuddled together with their young settling in for the night. Humans and animals both have a strong desire to protect their young and ensure their safety.
"But the very best part of this day
is over there on the floor.
Before we had one cat
and now we have four!"
There's new baby kittens
so tiny and small.
Aren't nature's surprises
the best gifts of all?"
The Best Part of My Day also reflects on family traditions and shows several illustrations of children helping their Mom cook dinner, helping to rake the leaves up when Fall has arrived, and helping to feed and water their animals each day.
The Best Part of The Day was a beautiful children's book that expresses the values of family and of taking time with your family each and every day. The illustrations were so life-like and beautiful. I just loved everything about this children's book and have read it to my son for the last 3 nights in a row! He loves it as much as I do!!!
