What Happens on Wednesdays

A preschooler marks the progress of her day by the sequence of activities she does, such as lunch, nap, swimming, and visiting the library, rather than by the clock. She also navigates her multiethnic Brooklyn neighborhood based on landmarks like the cat outside the deli and the bagel store, rather than street signs. Through the child's perspective, the book captures the sounds, tastes, smells, and sights of her environment and encourages children to create their own sensory maps and document their daily routines.
