A playful and poignant exploration of the nature of time through the eyes of a child from acclaimed author/illustrator Julie Morstad. What is time? Is it the tick tick tock of a clock, numbers and words on a calendar? It's that, but so much more. Time is a seed waiting to grow, a flower blooming, a sunbeam moving across a room. Time is slow like a spider spinning her web or fast like a wave at the beach. Time is a wiggly tooth, or waiting for the school bell to ring, or reading a story . . . or three But time is also morning for some and night for others, a fading sunset and a memory captured in a photo taken long ago. In this magical meditation on the nature of time, Julie Morstad shines a joyful light on a difficult-to-grasp concept for young readers and reminds older readers to see the wonders of our world, including children themselves, through the lens of time.Author: Julie MorstadPublisher: Tundra Books (NY)Published: 09/21/2021Pages: 56Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 1.33lbsSize: 11.65h x 10.14w x 0.50dISBN: 9780735267541Audience: Ages 4-8Review Citation(s): Publishers Weekly 06/07/2021Kirkus Reviews 07/15/2021Booklist 09/01/2021 pg. 84About the AuthorJULIE MORSTAD is an award-winning author and illustrator.
