Review
A small boy and his mother travel across town. As they pass interesting things such as puppies and flowers along the way, the mother wants the small boy to be in a hurry with her, but the boy wants his mother to wait. Although the book shares a wonderful lesson about enjoying the moment with those you love, the writing is unfortunately not very engaging. The pictures do a nice job showing readers small moments. Optional. Laura Ullom, Centennial Library Intern, Cedarville University
