Follow Wyatt and his mom, Rosie, as they embark on heartwarming adventures in this gentle tale about having a parent with a chronic illness. Even though Wyatt's mom, Rosie, has multiple sclerosis and doesn't always feel her best, nothing stops them from having the most exciting adventures. Some days, when Rosie is tired, she and Wyatt build a special fort in the living room just for two.

Some days, they cast spells on Wyatt's toys with Rosie's magical walking stick-or even head into town for the big "funraiser!"

Warm and uplifting, Some Days gently introduces young readers to the concept of having a loved one with a chronic illness.

Although some days are fast, and some are slow, each day is still an adventure filled with love, excitement, and fun-not to mention ice cream!
