Review Philosophical yet comprehensible, this is a dreamy, meditative examination of both time and nature. * The Bookseller *Carlisles verse has its own enchantments - and the lessons about natures fragility are stronger for being gently served. * Telegraph *enchanting picture book...stunning * The Reader Teacher *Not only is this a wonderfully informative book, but it is also a fantastic tool for introducing other educational topics such as the animals that live in and around rivers, the river ecosystem, and how there are new obstacles and changes that must be overcome, in nature and beyond, as time goes by. It is a great story to encourage, not only little ones, but all of us, to slow down and appreciate the changing world around us. Aside from themes related to mindfulness and nature, the book also contains a really useful non-fiction section at the back that could be used as a teaching tool with children. It would be a great resource for schools. I see this book as primarily a book about change, and it is truly a delight to read. Readers will fall in love with the outstanding watercolour illustrations and rhyming text. You really cannot help but enjoy reading this book with children, or even alone. * Armadillo Magazine *We love Emmas beautiful artwork and here she perfectly captures the changing details of nature. * Little Library Owl * Promotional Time runs like a river, never resting, moving steadily on. But if we notice how different each minute can be, we can appreciate them before they are gone.
