On a magical do-nothing day - beatrice alemagna

Magnificent splashes of fluorescent orange make this new picture book by international legend Alemagna--about a little boy who discovers nature--visually powerful, timely, and thought-provoking.

Full color.

Give the gift of a magical do-nothing day! Theres so much to notice in the world, if we can un-plug long enough.

This picture book with startlingly beautiful words and pictures will spur imagination and a break from boredom or screen time.

Now a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year and Bank Street College of Education Best Childrens Book of the Year! All I want to do on a rainy day like today is play my game.

My mom says its a waste of time, but without my game, nothing is fun! On the other hand, maybe Im wrong about that.

While reading On a Magical Do-Nothing Day, one gets the sense that the illustrator became lost in her drawings, and as a reader, youll want to do the same.

Perfect for fans of picture books by Julie Morstad, Carson Ellis, Jon Klassen, and Tomi Ungerer .

Hands down, Beatrice Alemagna is my favorite contemporary illustrator, said the Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator of Last Stop on Market Street, Christian Robinson.

On a Magical Do-Nothing Day has been recognized with a Gold Medal from the Society of Illustrators.

Dont miss this picture book that beautifully encourages unplugged exploration.
