PreS-Gr 2-From his window, Buttons the dog and his rubber ducky watch the world rush past. When he spots a delicate blue butterfly, he longs to share its beauty. As he follows the butterfly through a bustling café and a crowded street, only a few small creatures take notice. Frustrated, Buttons finally calls out for the world to stop and appreciate this tiny wonder. Lambert's vibrant watercolor ­illustrations bring the dog's journey to life, with playful sound words capturing the city's noisy energy. VERDICT A gentle, thoughtful story that encourages children to slow down and appreciate the small moments of beauty in everyday life. --School Library Journal
