Illustrated by Peter H Reynolds.
A touching, heart-felt message from a mother to her child.
"One day I counted your fingers and kissed each one...
Sometimes, when you sleep, I watch you dream, and I dream too --
That someday you will dive into the cool clear water of a lake...
Someday I will watch you brushing your child's hair...
Someday..."
What every mother, (every parent!), wishes for her child is a chance to live life at its fullest -- to experience great joys, to stretch, to grow, to understand sorrow, to have a future... to have a someday. And with this shimmering, achingly beautiful piece, two great talents, Alison McGhee and Peter Reynolds, have taken this idea and turned it into something so poignant, yet so simple and pure, that it will touch every reader, deeply. 'Someday' is a book you'll want to share with someone else... today.
