The creators of The Day You Begin team up again to dazzle readers with a story celebrating the power in each of us to dream a thing and make it happen. On a dreary, stuck-inside kind of day, a brother and sister heed their grandmother's advice : "Use those beautiful and brilliant minds of yours. Lift your arms, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and believe in a thing. Somebody somewhere at some point was just as bored as you are now." And before they know it, their imaginations lift them up and out of their boredom.
Then, on a day full of quarrels, they follow Grandmother's advice and find they're able to leave their anger behind. This precious skill, their grandmother tells them, harkens back to days long before they were born, when their ancestors showed the world the strength and resilience of their beautiful and brilliant minds.
