As a boy and his mother move quickly through the city, they're drawn to
different things. The boy sees a dog, a butterfly, and a hungry duck
while his mother rushes them toward the departing train. It's push and
pull, but in the end, they both find something to stop for.
Acclaimed author/illustrator Antoinette Portis' signature style conveys
feelings of warmth, curiosity, humor and tenderness in this simple,
evocative story.
