Sheer exuberance fills the pages of this picture book celebration of the promise every day brings.

Where will you go on those traveling feet?
Who will you love? Who will you meet?
Be a little seed. Get carried away!
Go WILD into the brand-new day.

From the bustle of the morning to the quiet of bedtime, every new day is filled with possibility. Follow a group of children as they find fun at every turn—dancing, playing games, picnicking, reading a book, climbing a mountain, or just shouting out their enthusiasm to the world. Sally Lloyd-Jones’s upbeat text integrates with Kevin Waldron’s high-energy mixed-media illustrations for a story that exudes unabashed joy.
There’s a commendable, uplifting message for youngsters here: Do you, be you, and be proud of whoever you are. . . An enthusiastic reminder to rejoice in being yourself every single day.
—Kirkus Reviews

Exuberant. . . reminiscent of “Free to Be... You and Me” and Oh, the Places You’ll Go!
