What a nice book! How do you explain to a child that daydreaming is useful, but that you also have to enjoy the now. This book gives you in children's language the examples that a 5 year old understands. My son likes the repetition and the examples in the text and the drawings are beautiful. I have to read this book regularly! - Hebban
