An excellent rhyming moral learning tale about Maud, a child who races through everything. Excited about the super-power she's found, she has forgotten to enjoy the beauty around. Taught to take in the world more slowly, she's told, "You can still be super. Listen and look as you take a seat. And enjoy this world that is under your feet."
"There once was a child who was eager to race, She ran through the day at the fastest pace. Excited about the super-power she'd found, She had forgotten to enjoy the beauty around. My child come sit and talk to me, Take in this world more slowly. You can still be super. You can still have powers. But slowing down increases the hours. By slowing down new beauty the day brings, Allowing you to enjoy more things. Listen and look as you take a seat. And enjoy this world that is under your feet". Maud felt comforted for the first time and thought that each day she would try to listen and look and enjoy this world that is under her feet, noticing for the first time all the wonderful things that were around her. An excellent rhyming moral learning tale written by Sarah Surgey (author of THE HEAVY BAG), illustrated by Sayani Mukherjee.
