About this title

Synopsis

For the parent and child, A Day That's Ours slows down to explore the small wonders of our surroundings, and the emotions of sending a child to school. The perfect first day of school book!

"An absolute joy. A Day That’s Ours is all about a special day between a father and child in the last week of summer break. While the two don’t do anything that out of the ordinary, it’s all the quality time together that makes it full of magic."
—Little Cub Literacy

"Many of the kids books that we read featuring family relationships have a mother figure with their child so it’s nice to see more father representation. All this to say, this book is lovely & was the perfect book to calm us down before all the hustle bustle coming our way!"
—Oh The Books We Love
