Life is a collection of big and little moments, and all are celebrated in this vibrant, moving keepsake-a perfect gift for graduations or other notable events. Life is a collection of big and little moments, and all are celebrated in this vibrant, moving keepsake-a perfect gift for graduations or other notable events. A moment is made when everything that came before meets what is happening now. Each moment is new. It's a song and how you hear it. It's a sunny day and how you feel it. In this exhilarating and meaningful book, all the happenings in a person's life-the brave ones, the peaceful ones, the nervous, proud, and grateful ones-combine to make us who we are and to light the way to what's next. It's just the right read for a child who's about to graduate from kindergarten, celebrate a birthday, or move to a new home, or even for a teenager on their way to college. Like Oh, the Places You'll Go and The Wonderful Things You Will Be, this cherishable book brings joy and inspiration.
