Saturday

From the incredible author and illustrator of Thank You, Omu! Caldecott Honor-winning Oge Mora is back with a tale about a mother and daughter’s mission to have the perfect saturday.

Today would be special. Today would be splendid. It was Saturday! But sometimes, the best plans don’t work out exactly the way you expect….

In this heartfelt black children’s book, a mother and daughter look forward to their special Saturday routine together every single week. But this Saturday, one thing after another goes wrong – ruining story time, salon time, picnic time and the puppet show they’d been looking forward to going to all week. Mom is nearing a meltdown…until her loving daughter reminds her that being together is the most important thing of all!
