Shari Green
April 14th, 2026
In this ode to the delights found in a summer’s day, readers of all ages are invited to notice, savour and linger in life’s small moments. Shari Green’s Savor the Day (Sleeping Bear Press $27.99) follows a young girl and her grandfather on a beachside outing, where sensory pleasures—from cool ocean water to ripe fruit and warm sand—unfold through rhythmic, lyrical text. An award-winning author of novels in verse, Green brings her poetic sensibility to this picture book, pairing gentle storytelling with illustrations by Gabby Grant to reflect her deep connection to nature. Based on Vancouver Island, BC, she draws inspiration from coastal landscapes that shape a story centred on presence, memory and shared experience. 9781534113534
