The Enormous Morning
By Louise Greig and Lizzy Stewart
Is a joyous story
Bursting with colour that makes you beam
Filled with the potential and possibility of a new day
The magic of morning is written in lyrical text
That often feels as though it should be sung
In celebration of the anticipation and excitement
Of a brand new day

I absolutely love the words of Louise Greg
The building rhythm of the lyrical text
As a new day dawns and brightens
Bringing light and colour
Shape and shadow
Sounds and feelings
To the world
To Pia and her Papa

This is the most poetical description
Of day break
I have read
It feels like a glorious flower is unfolding
It feels like turning page after page of a brand new book
It is like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis
And every wonderful description of the wild world
Is wrapped up in the tangible love we see
Between Pia and her Papa

Tiny things drop into morning
Pia and her Papa head outside to explore
And to welcome the day
As morning grows
They head out into the wild
Sharing mindful moments
Experiencing the awe and wonder
Of nature all around

The pictures are stunning
So rich and vibrant
They make me want to start every day
With a walk in the wild with my wee ones

This brilliant and beautiful story makes me want
To rise and shine and picnic
“Because morning likes it
When there is a picnic in it.”

This book from Farshore
Is just such a joy to read
It is the story of morning
An enormous morning
With everything in it
Including cuddles, laughter and imagination
Everything wrapped up in love
Pia and Papa’s world of love

This would be a gorgeous gift for Father’s Day
For a daughter to share with her Daddy
Perhaps on an early morning picnic
In the wonderful wild world
