My half day
by Doris Fisher
Doris Fisher's "My half day" invites you into a truly unique day, experienced through the eyes of a young boy at what he calls "fraction camp." It's less about math lessons and more about how he perceives the world around him in delightful, segmented ways. You'll follow his morning and afternoon, from breakfast to archery, all framed by his evolving understanding of fractions. The real magic, though, happens when his soccer game involves an unexpected, very non-human team, subtly introducing a hidden world and an unlikely friendship. This book has a wonderfully whimsical, lighthearted feel. It's a charming, observant read that gently unfolds, perfect for anyone who enjoys seeing the ordinary made extraordinary, and who appreciates stories where quiet curiosity leads to surprising adventures and a fresh perspective on daily life.
