And he always, always keeps an eye on Rosie. Imbued with warmth, this lovely oceanside tale from New York Times bestselling author Amy Hest and two-time New York Times Best Illustrated Childrens Book honoree Taeeun Yoo celebrates the idea of quiet, unhurried moments with loved ones and the beautiful connection between young and old.

When Rosie Walks George Reviews

In a series of moving spreads, its George who sits vigil all night long at the waters edge when Rosies ball washes out to sea, and George who returns it to her the next morning. In this tender day-to-day portrait about caretaking across every stage of life, the creators follow George as carefully and lovingly as he watches Rosie. Publishers Weekly (starred review) Gentle and comforting. Kirkus Reviews From the simple, well-chosen words of the narrative to the understated but essential connection between the old dog and the young child who care for each other, the book draws listeners in with its heartfelt tale and lovable main characters. Fresh and airy as a summer day by the sea, the digital illustrations portray the main characters and the seaside setting vividly. A satisfying picture book. Booklist
