About This Book
Tisha has spent the entire day rushing. She has to hustle for the bus in the morning, though she wants to stop and listen to the sounds around her. She has to quickly put her crayons away at school, though she's not finished with her drawing. She even has to speed through recess so she doesn't miss lunch. So when Mommy picks her up, Tisha asks if they can please "have a little slowdown." What if they walked instead of taking the bus? What if they counted cars and seagulls, umbrellas and hats? What if they simply sat on a bench in the sunshine and gave names to the pigeons in the park?
