Small pleasures in the city

A mother and daughter move through a busy day in the city, where a change of plans opens space to notice and enjoy everyday pleasures. The story centers on their time together and the shift from hurry to shared attention. Micha Archer’s cut-paper illustrations are described as highlighting these moments, making the city itself part of the book’s setting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for children ages 4–8 exploring stories about family time.
  • For young readers who enjoy picture books set in a city and focused on everyday discoveries.
  • Could work well for a parent and child looking for a story about slowing down together.

Book overview

*SIX STARRED REVIEWS!*

Award-winning creators Anne Wynter and Micha Archer share a mother-daughter tale about delighting in small pleasures throughout the city. Perfect for fans of Oge Mora and Sophie Blackall.

Anne Wynter perfectly captures the hurry and hustle of a busy day. But when plans change and a girl and her mother slow down to savor small pleasures, the real celebration begins.

Dazzling, kaleidoscopic cut paper artwork from Caldecott Honor artist Micha Archer highlights each special moment in this sweet tribute to time spent together.
