Compare The Way to Start a Day by Byrd Baylor, Picture Books | Indigo Chapters

The way to start the day is to go outdoors and face the sun, making it welcome for the new day by your song or gift or blessing, as the cavemen did, and the Peruvians . . . and the people of Egypt, Africa and China . . .
