This is a book about mindfulness. About relishing the magic of the here and now. About enjoying the extraordinary unfoldings of an ordinary day.

Moving from morning to night, the narrator becomes, by turns, boy or girl, of ever-changing ethnicity and ability, inhabiting city, country, or suburb. They are all children everywhere, opening themselves to the gift of time.

Most Days by Michael Leannah and Megan Elizabeth Baratta invites readers to be present and savour each moment, capturing a child's perspective on the world around them.
