pickPicture Book- Waiting by Kevin Henkes (2015) Caldecott honor-Author uses gentle, muted colors — browns, pinks, green-blue tones — that feel soothing and calm. The pages often have light, neutral backgrounds, which help the toys and small changes outside the window stand out without overwhelming the eye.
Waiting by Kevin Henkes is best for ages 3–7 (Preschool to 2nd grade).Young children can easily follow along, while the quiet tone encourages focus and reflection.
8 days ago, I planted carrot seeds in a pot. I have never grown anything before from seed. It is no joke to say I have wanted to do this since I read this book to my daughter 25 years ago.
I would use this fable in my classroom to teach students about the importance of taking their time while doing their work and kind of use it as a learning moment.
