Sometimes, when you sleep, I watch you dream, and I dream too--
That someday you will dive into the cool clear water of a lake...
Someday I will watch you brushing your child's hair...
Someday...
A deceptively simple, powerful ode to the potential of love and the potential in life, Someday is the story of what every mother wishes for her child: a chance to live life at its fullest--to experience great joys, to stretch, to grow, to understand sorrow, to have a future...to have a someday. This shimmering, achingly beautiful, and poignant tale--created by two great talents--takes this idea and turns it into something that will touch every reader. Someday, now available in a gorgeous keepsake edition, is a story you'll want to share with a special someone today and every day.
