The Day is Waiting
is a delightful children’s book illustrated by Don Freeman, the author of Corduroy. It is written from a child’s
point of view, about going out to see things in the world and coming home at
the end of the day. I would recommend it for children age three to eight (give
or take).
I was very excited to receive this book for my daughter, and
was not disappointed! The illustrations are beautiful and a delight to look at,
and Linda Zuckerman did a great job putting them to a story line. I wouldn’t
say it really has a spiritual message, but Isaiah 55:12 is quoted at the very
end, and its theme is touched upon throughout the book. Seeing the pictures by
Don Freeman is a bit nostalgic for me, as Corduroy was one of my favorite books
as a child, and I can’t wait to share this with my daughter when she is a
little older.
Overall I think this is a great addition to a child’s
library!
I received this book
