The Magic Days of a Child Linda Kulivan

My book is divided into twenty short poetic stories about a child's imagination. All the everyday normal days of a child are full of wonderful magic moments for him. His dog is green and walks across a log. His cat is going up a tree and coming down with a key. It's fun to hear a child tell about his imagined day. He talks excitedly about the ape he saw at the zoo. He knows it had a red cape. The sun shining on top of a mountain becomes a place to dream all day. The child sees planes, birds of every color, and soft feathery clouds that would fly up high. There's the apple tree that stole a kite. Where did it go? The kite was never seen again. The tree ate the kite. A child's imagination is a wonderful thing. By stories such as these, a child becomes aware of the magic in every day. It's waiting for him. I hope by reading this book, each child's imagination will be touched, and he will find his own magic moments that are waiting for him. I wish that a little child's imagination would stay forever with him.
