Savor slowly: Patience, Miyuki (Galliez and Ratanavanh) #PatienceMiyuki #NetGalley

Miyuki is eager to welcome spring and to see her flower bloom.  While her grandfather counsels patience, Miyuki is so impatient that she cannot do this.  The story unfolds as Miyuki goes on a journey searching for water and learns that things happen in the time that is meant for them.

This is the second collaboration by the author and illustrator.  As in the first book, Time for Bed, Miyuki, the text and illustrations complement each other well.  As can be seen from the book cover the reader looks at peaceful, gorgeous, imaginative scenes.

I hope that I will get to spend more time with Miyuki, her grandfather and her world in the future.  Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this lyrical volume. All opinions are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
