£6.99
Tisha and the Blossom encounter each other in the back yard before school. Yet there is little time to wonder, for it’s a ‘hurry up‘ to school, and then to the bus, and then to assembly. It seems that Tisha has little time to linger over what she sees and hears. At the end of the day, when Mummy suggests they ‘Hurry up’ up so as not ‘to miss the bus‘, Tisha says, ‘I have done too much hurrying up today’.
Is it possible that Mummy might stop, draw breath and then take time to wander, look and see with Tisha? Thereafter, what if Daddy leaves hurrying toward dinner, but enjoys the blossom with Tisha too?
Tisha and the Blossom is a gentle nudge, a reminder of the wonder all about us and within us too. Wendy Meddour’s thoughtful text with recognisable scenes are elevated gloriously through Daniel Egnéus’ spellbinding pictures. We are brought close to Tisha’s grief at being hectored alongside being offered the scope of what she recognises, appreciates and lingers upon. Bookwagon recommends Tisha and the Blossom for home and school reading.
