Reach for this book when you want to empower your child as a narrator or when you need a gentle way to practice patience and observational skills. Wordless books are incredible tools for building confidence in pre-readers because there are no wrong answers, only discoveries. This charming story follows a boy preparing breakfast while his dog, Jack, waits with increasing anticipation and a few hilarious kitchen mishaps. It is perfect for children who are beginning to take pride in 'reading' on their own. The emotional heart of the book lies in the relatable tension of waiting for something good. Through vibrant illustrations, children explore themes of responsibility, humor in mistakes, and the joy of a shared meal. It is a fantastic choice for parents looking to slow down and engage in a dialogue-rich experience with their 3 to 6-year-old, as the lack of text forces both parent and child to look closer at the characters' expressions and the unfolding comedy in the background.
