On My Walk

by Kari-Lynn Winters &
illustrator Christina Leist

Mothers and toddlers end up being caught in a summer rainstorm on their walk through Vancouver streets. Beautifully illustrated by Christina Leist, this simple story will be a fun bedtime read for everyone!

Reviews:

“The patient and hypnotic rhythm is exactly the kind of thing that will worm its way into the memories and imaginations of toddlers, who will likety start ippity-oppiting themselves after a single reading.” — Nathan Whitlock, Quill & Quire.

“ The very simple text, with onomatopoeic words, is great for reading aloud. Toddlers won?t need much encouragement to join in the chorus of slippity-slop’s and clippity-clop’s...Highly Recommended.” — Linda Ludke, CM Magazine, Volume XVI Number 25.
