Impatient Jaya can't wait for her grandmother Nani's cherry pie, but wise Nani teaches her to slow down through seasonal activities like pruning trees, planting bulbs, and watching nature bloom. As time passes and surprises unfold, Jaya learns that good things come to those who wait, turning frustration into appreciation for the rewards. Jesse Kaur's partly autobiographical tale captures the bond between generations with gentle wisdom.

Fiona Rose's chalky illustrations beautifully show changing seasons in this dual language book from Mantra Lingua's IFeel collection on emotions. Perfect for little ones to explore patience and mindfulness, it's a cosy read for families or schools to discuss slowing down, nature's gifts, and the joy of waiting together.
