Welcome the Day
24 pages; Chronicle Books
Need a pop of pure joy? Graphic designer Emma Giuliani has created an open-the-flap confection for grown-ups in which she celebrates the delights of a single day. Her focus is on gratitude and the pleasures of the natural world ("See the beauty of the mix of colors together."). Each black-and-white page has a foldout that can be opened to reveal exuberant purples, pinks, yellows or greens, suggesting that it’s up to us to lift our blinders and discover life's odd beauty. (Look carefully and you’ll notice the ladybug gracing every spread. Truly, it's the little things...)
