A sweet story about an impatient dad and his curious son. This is a good book to remind us all of a few things:
1. Nature is amazing. Stop and appreciate it when you have the opportunity.
2. Your kids are only kids for a short time. Play with them while you still can!
3. Sometimes the "perfect" spot/situation appears when you stop looking so hard for it.

I should shelve this under "parenting advice." :)

One of the few books he has written that does not have a dog in it. Good story and lovely paintings anyway.

An artist dad and his adventurous son head out to find the perfect spot. Love all the little details about animals you can find in nature. A great story about father and son connection!!🥰
