Hello Day

The picture book Hello Day presents a whimsical kids-eye view of a day, filled with wonders big and small . . . which sometimes clashes with their parents more practical plans. Hello apple, hello shelf I can reach you all by myself. When a father and child finally get out of the house, the toddler says hello to everything from a snack to a squirrel to a sidewalk puddle. Meanwhile, Dad stays focused on getting the duo from point A to point B. But the eager and enthusiastic hellos from his kid remind Dad to pay attention to the here and now. Told entirely in the childs voice, and boldly illustrated in vibrant colors and joyful lines, this picture book from Charlie Mylie celebrates gentle parenting and invites kid and adult readers alike to get curious about the small wonders hiding in everyday moments.
