How do you make something? Gather, Make, Wait
It's repetitious, but it's the truth!
This is a great way to introduce young ones to the creative process of making things - creative things, food things, friendships, and so much more.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher.
In a time where everything is available in an instant, books like this are needed. This beautiful book is full of children not only creating things on their own, but they are waiting for the process to finish naturally. They are trying again and again, learning the importance of resilience and patience. The simple text makes this book easy for all ages to understand and for the lesson to sink in that good things come to those who make and wait.

The repetitive refrain (gather, make, wait) makes it easy to follow along and it's easily adaptable for anything you want to make or create. It also suggests the patience needed to wait until it's ready. The limited text relies heavily on the pictures to tell the story. Sometimes the pictures are a little muddled, but most of the ideas get across. You might need to help your child along or explain some of the ideas in this book for it to make sense to them.

TO MAKE might just be my new favorite picture book. Gather, make, wait. The words by Danielle Davis are beautiful and inspiring. It's the book I needed now, and I can't wait to share it with the young people in my life. Mags DeRoma brings the text to life with a diverse cast of characters and a touch of magic. I adore the gnome! TO MAKE would make a great end of the year teacher gift!
