Be a Maker
How many things can you make in a day? A tower, a friend, a change?

This simple, layered story celebrates creativity through beautiful rhyming verse and vibrant illustrations with a timely message.

AN ORDINARY DAY
An ordinary day in an ordinary neighborhood turns out to be quite extraordinary in this story about the circle of life.
It’s an average day in the neighborhood—children play, roses are watered, and a crow watches over it all. But then two visitors arrive at two houses, one to help a family say hello to a new baby and one to help a family say goodbye to a beloved pet.
