Footprints onThe Minute Hand is a beautiful tale about the small moments. Memorable childhood characters and whimsies are gathered by the minute hand. Find their footprints atop the rings of a tree and remember your first teddy bear or wish on a shooting star. Magic is truly found within the reader as verse evokes our own stories - proof that some moments are indeed everlasting. From the author of Little Chef and The Thunder Maker and The Adventure of The Apology Letter, this playful allegory captures the spirit of timeless life moments and our very own journeys. Making their mark together for the first time and hoping you continue to make yours, share a whisper, a whistle, and a wish on the wind as these characters remind you of how it all began.
