Everyday We- Friendships makes love for each other and love for the unplugged joys of childhood accessible to even very small readers. That's why it should be in classrooms, libraries, and bookshelves across Canada. Ms.CAN Lit
There are a few reasons why I think this book is important. Firstly, there is a really good mix of activities represented across the book's sixteen poems. Every child will see something they connect with, whether it is riding a bike and playing on a playground, or painting and baking. Dallan still focuses on outdoor play and the natural world more than anything, with a sprinkling of imaginative play thrown in. These are the scenes you want your children to grow up seeing, rather than depictions of playing video games and watching television. It is as if the book is saying: "Hey! Look how fun this is! Don't you want to try this with your friends, too?" Or: "When you are playing with your friends down by the river and in the park, that is special. Special enough to be in a book! Keep it up!

In Everyday Me, author/illustrator Marnie Dallan celebrates all the little wonders of childhood through fourteen separate poems and vibrant images. She embodies the child's voice and perspective to capture the joy and everyday magic in things like stomping in puddles, building forts, and swimming. She also recognizes the special fascination children have with nature through poems such as "Worms," "Lady Bug," and "Leaf." Ms.Can Lit
This book captures nostalgia for parents who grew up in simpler times, gives a voice to children to celebrate their interests, big and small, and encourages parents and kids alike to get outside and explore. That's why it should be in classrooms, libraries, and bookshelves across Canada. Ms.CAN Lit
