Someday Is Not a Day of the Week

Reach for this book when your child starts showing signs of 'time hunger' or frustration with the standard grown-up answer of 'maybe later.' It is a gentle tool for parents who find themselves accidentally over-promising and under-delivering on quality time due to the hectic pace of daily life. The story follows Max, a young beaver, who is tired of hearing that the fun things he wants to do will happen on 'Someday.' Through Max's journey to find this mysterious day on the calendar, the book validates a child's sense of time and their deep need for presence. It provides a perfect opening for parents to discuss expectations and the importance of making concrete plans. It is developmentally ideal for children in the early elementary years who are beginning to understand the structure of a week but still struggle with the abstract nature of 'soon.'
