This book walks through a day with Omu making her soup for dinner. Many people come by and ask her for some. She shares with them but runs out of soup for herself at the end of the day. She hears a knock at the door and all the people she shared with are there with something for her. This book could be great for 1st and 2nd graders as a read-out-loud. A lesson on what it means to be in a community with others and share. Also, because the pictures are so detailed, you could also talk to students about making a picture book with pictures that add details, or if this was turned into a no-picture book, what details could be added for the book to make more sense?… (mehr)

A beautiful story about a mother and daughter faced with disappointments on their special day, but willing to make the best of it. A wonderful story for working parents and everyone.

As a mom who works fulltime, this book tugged my heartstrings hard. The mother and daughter depicted in this story cherish their time together on Saturdays, even when the day is kind of a disaster. It's a simple story with a familiar theme, but it still feels exceptional. The illustrations somehow radiate joy in the bond between parent and child. The story is told with an excellent refrain: they take a deep breath and let it out like "whoosh" when something bad happens.

Oge Mora’s collage art is just wonderful. I love looking at all the details on each spread. And on top of that, her stories always get to the heart of things, such as being together with people we care about. Saturday holds a lesson we could all keep in mind— some days it will seem like all your plans have gone down the drain, and yet if you are still able to spend time with your loved ones, the day could never be ruined.
