For the parent and child, A Day That's Ours slows down to explore
the small wonders of our surroundings, and the emotions of sending a
child to school. The perfect first day of school book!
An absolute joy. A Day That's Ours is all about a special day between
a father and child in the last week of summer break. While the two don't
do anything that out of the ordinary, it's all the quality time together
that makes it full of magic.
--Little Cub Literacy
Many of the kids books that we read featuring family relationships have
a mother figure with their child so it's nice to see more father
representation. All this to say, this book is lovely & was the perfect
book to calm us down before all the hustle bustle coming our way!
--Oh The Books We Love
In this heart-warming, poetic story, a father and child share the last
few moments of quiet before the school year begins. They take the time
to notice each detail as they spend their special day together - from
making a special pancake breakfast to noticing each spider's web and
falling feather. A moving story for parents to share with their little
ones as they take their first steps into school or nursery. For fans of
Stanley the Dog: The First Day of School.
