“I wanna be older. I wanna be big, like you”, they say excitedly.
“For a little longer, just a wee bit more, she argues,
could you not hold on and take your time to grow up?”
In a world that is raring to go,
the time that is swooshing past, Ann’s book is a reminder to slow down,
Breathe,
be in the moment,
Before you are all too big to enjoy the magic that is childhood.
