Wait

WaitWait

By: Antoinette Portis

There is a time to hurry and a time to wait.  This is beautifully illustrated in Antoinette Portis’ picture book, Wait.  Hurry and wait are the only words used until the very last page.  Each page depicts a reason why one would wait or hurry.  The hurry pages are an adult view of hurry while the wait page is why the child wants to wait.  A book that makes you realize how much we miss because we hurry more than wait!

Ages 2 to 5
