Buttercup's Lovely Day
Buttercup's Lovely Day | Carolyn Beck
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Called a "read-aloud gem" by Quill & Quire, this picture book will delight children with its creative use of language and endearing illustrations. In rhyming text that winds like a creek through a farmer's field, the book takes readers on a journey through one lovely day in Buttercup's life. Whether she is ruminating on the mud beneath her feet or on the moon and the stars in the blue-black sky, she draws us deep into her rich and wonderful world, reminding us all to be grateful for life's simple pleasures.

Buttercup's Lovely Day | Carolyn Beck
post image

I was looking for a fun or funny poem, but everything I came up with ran quite dark! So, instead, here‘s Buttercup. She‘s a cow, practicing mindfulness and appreciation for the world around her. It‘s very relaxing and quite lovely!

Today I‘m grateful for:
1. a new week
2. the sound of rain
3. Plants that are stubborn enough to survive in my care.

A cow‘s gratitude journal in verse, anyone? This is absolutely gorgeous. Buttercup loves all the tiny things that go on around her through the day.

“I love the bee
that lands on me
She‘s fuzzy and buzzy
and sweet as can be”

I‘ll be buying this one! (Just as soon as I find a UK source for Canadian publisher Orca Book Publishers - they presumably do a great ebook package for libraries!)
