Don Freeman, the creator of Corduroy, was one of the most beloved and popular author/illustrators of picture books for children. After Freeman’s death in 1978, colleagues and his wife decided to use his never before published artwork and make a commemorative book using his wonderful illustrations. This audio version of Linda Zuckerman’s thoughtful rhyming text, The Day Is Waiting, takes listeners on a tour of our big, wide world and reminds us that no matter how far we roam, we always have home to come back to.This classic tale is imbued with Freeman’s gentle humor, spontaneity, and his appreciation of the variety and complexity of human experiences, creating a book that children will enjoy listening to again and again.
