From a New York Times bestselling author and a New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Book honoree, a heartfelt story about taking time to enjoy those you’re with and the world around you.
George is an old dog, and he doesn’t run fast anymore. But he still needs a walk, and each day, Mother, Dad, and the big kids take turns. Rosie, the little one, trails behind. George doesn’t hurry. And he always, always keeps an eye on Rosie. Imbued with warmth, this lovely oceanside tale from New York Times bestselling author Amy Hest and two-time New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Book honoree Taeeun Yoo celebrates the idea of quiet, unhurried moments with loved ones and the beautiful connection between young and old.
