Time Runs Like A River by Emma Carlisle
Time Runs Like A River
by Emma Carlisle 
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. Rivers can be fast-flowing or still, raging or calm, just like us.

This lyrical picture book from the award-winning artist Emma Carlisle explores the concepts of time and change through the ebb and flow of a river. From the fleeting flash of a kingfisher to the slow grinding of pebbles, this beautiful book encourages readers to notice the big and small things happening in nature, as well as reflecting on things which have come and gone and those yet to be enjoyed. Published in association with the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the book also includes non-fiction spreads with themes of mindfulness and nature, which can be shared with children.
