About This Book

A list of errands in hand, a little boy sets out to town with good intentions, but how can he pass by a game of catch without joining in? And how can he resist the sweet smells coming from the bakery or the breezes beckoning in the harbor? Inspired by an old children's street rhyme, this simple story for the very young captures a time when the whole world is a playground, each new day a quest, and at journey's end, supper and a story wait at home. A perfect read-aloud for parent and child to share when the mood calls for a story of both comfort and adventure.
