Hurry Up! A Book About Slowing Down

AUTHOR: Kate Dopirak
ILLUSTRATOR: Christopher Silas Neal

From the Publisher:

A busy boy and his dog learn to slow down and enjoy life together in this lyrical, rhyming picture book perfect for hurried families everywhere.

For one busy boy, life is all hurry up, hurry down, hurry round and round and round! That is until he takes a big breath…and a big break…and slows down to see all the wonderful things in the world around him.

From celebrated picture book creators Kate Dopirak and Christopher Silas Neal, this playful yet powerful picture book reminds us to be present, to be mindful, and to appreciate each moment.

Leah’s Thoughts:

A sweet reminder to slow down and enjoy the little things in life. A great reminder, especially in June, as things feel hectic with the end of the school year.
