This simple poem is an ode to a morning walk in the city. A family greets the day with a walk around their community saying Hi to the joy in life. This story is lovely, but quiet. The illustrations match.

This is a nice picture book written in rhyming prose. There are onomatopoeias woven throughout and the illustrations are gentle but intriguing. There is nothing that stands out as being overly exciting about the book, but I think some readers would enjoy it. I would recommend this book for younger children in the age 3-6 range. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for giving me the chance to read and review this book.

This book was so beautiful! Gillian Sze's poetry is so much fun to read quietly and out loud. This is going to be a really fun one to recommend to children and families, especially in terms of building print literacy and motivation. Soyeon Kim's art is also completely gorgeous and lends such a gentle feel and a magical air to Sze's prose. I can't wait for this one to hit our shelves.
