A resistant Lily discovers that new experiences don’t wish to be scary on this engaging, deftly told story certain to resonate with young children. (Ages 3-5)

One morning, Lily’s mom wakes up with a sore throat and achy head and needs to stay in bed. But Lily’s dad needs to go to work. Who will look after Lily? When Dad arranges for her to spend the day at Melanie’s house, Lily is none too happy. “Don’t wish to go!” she says. Although Melanie has a friendly dog named Ringo and a funny baby named Sam, Lily is shy and wants to take a seat under the table with her toy Bobbo. But perhaps a possibility to make silly collages, or feed Sam lunch, or hold Ringo’s leash might make her feel braver—and perhaps she’ll start having such a lot fun she won’t wish to leave on the end of the day! With illustrations that keenly convey emotion through the subtlest gesture, Shirley Hughes mines a familiar situation for its most genuine moments and creates a in point of fact reassuring story for young children.
