Description
Author Oriane Smith and illustrator Alice Gravier celebrate the wonder that can be found in even the most seemingly ordinary days in this inspiring picture book.
An average day can be just that: average. But it can also be extraordinary and full of surprises, if we’re mindful of the world around us. In Days Like This, we witness the peaks and valleys of everyday life through two different narrative voices. The tiniest detail or the most fleeting moment can look quite different, depending on your perspective!
“With its thoughtful tone and call-and-response text, Days Like This will be a good summertime fit for families whose 5-to-9-year-olds want to practice their reading.” —Wall Street Journal
About the authors
Oriane Smith est née en France, dans un village brumeux situé au bord de la mer. Elle a déménagé à Montréal, au Canada, en 2014, abandonnant les vagues de la mer pour les forêts enneigées. À la fois autrice, musicienne et orthophoniste, elle aime créer des histoires en jouant avec les mots et les sons.
Alice Gravier a étudié en arts graphiques à Rennes, avant de s’installer à Paris où elle mène sa carrière d’illustratrice. Dans son travail, elle s’intéresse surtout aux petits détails, à ces petites choses simples qui composent la vie de tous les jours. Elle aime aussi observer les gens et leur façon de marcher.
