nerd teacher [books] reviewed Waiting by Kevin Henkes
Cute and Slow
3 stars
Something that I think is underappreciated in children's books is slowness. Not a sort of slowness to cause boredom but a kind of slowness that allows for pause and to engage in what's on the page. This book provides that, especially as the story is really just about some toys who are always 'waiting' for something and enjoying the company of those around them.
