Wait, Darling, Wait
Written and illustrated by Marijanel this picture book has the timeless qualities of being loved by the whole family.
With ages 2-8 in mind, the sunny farm's adorable animals pass by their feathered friend, Chicken, they ask her the timeless question, "Why are you just sitting there?" Chicken's patient response, "Wait, darling, wait. Something good is going to happen," sets the stage for a happy surprise.
This tale is a celebration of hope and the joy of anticipating wonderful things. As the animals learn to wait and stay hopeful, young readers are gently guided to embrace these virtues in their own lives.
In her illustration and attention to detail, Marijanel has masterfully hidden the next animal to appear on each page and created each animal their own flower and tiny insects. Children can find these hidden treasures as they look at the pictures time and again, learning the rhythm of the words, and discovering the meaning of Chicken waiting on her nest.
This is a book you will love reading to the little one in your life, there is rhythm and pattern to the flow, repetition and fun with a dose of humor. This is an "I can't wait to read" kind of kids book.
