We Go Slow

A Golden Kite Award Winner for Picture Book Text A walk through their bustling city neighborhood brings a girl and her grandfather closer together in this gentle, contemplative picture book that's "a reminder of the importance of being in the world with unhurried attention and open hearts" ( Publishers Weekly , starred review). A child and her grandfather step out of their brownstone and take a walk around their lively city. Together, they practice looking closely. They delight in the world that they see, taste, touch, feel, and hear. Whether learning a yellow bird's song, tasting a street vendor's mango slices, or listening to the thumping music from passing cars, they find small wonders in every moment they share-and together, always, they go slow. Simple yet poetic, We Go Slow is a breathtaking invitation to everyday wonder from acclaimed picture book creators Mariahadessa Ekere Tallie and Aaron Becker.
