"jlg gold standard"--Front cover

'You're not in a hurry today. Stop for a moment, and look up. The sky is so big and so blue. It's a beautiful, blue sky morning'. Eunny wakes up slowly. She gets out of bed, goes to the window to look out at the busy street, and then heads downstairs. Soon it's time for school. Eunny and Mama step out into the crisp day, but they don't rush. They notice the pretty pink petals of new flowers, the changing red-gold leaves and the big blue sky above. It's easy to be happy on a blue sky morning. This uplifting, mindful picture book from the creator of 'The Depth of the Lake and the Height of the Sky' depicts an ordinary morning with beautiful subtlety. The gently unhurried narrative encourages readers to take their time, while the rich illustrations are full of details to notice
