As little children are often expected to fit with busy adult schedules and appointments, it can be challenging. Often it leads to upsets for parents and children, especially as children are involved in their own events. Ember discovers that there are some things that just can’t be hurried and must take their own time no matter what hurry and pressure is going on. Hurry up Ember is a gentle reminder that childhood is short and full of wonder. Take a big breath and take time to get ready… then ‘hurrying up’ can be much simpler and much far less trouble. Diana Reynolds has created a refreshingly wise story about a point of tension both children and adults experience and offers a solution that works for Ember and his family.

This is a story about eight children whose names are Lilly, Ann, Will, Johnathon, Timothy, Margaret, Susan, and Maria. They live in a very large and mysterious house where they have all sorts of adventures. It is a stone house on an old country lane, and it is not only the place where they explore, imagine, tell stories, sing, and play musical instruments, but it is also the place where they do school and study, and so you see, between the work and play, they became very familiar with the house indeed. Yet it never ceases to surprise them, how it can look in the moonlight, or on a rainy day, or with morning beams of sunlight flowing through its windows. Join them in the attic for a story on a stormy night, or find them in a park on a summer afternoon with the warm wind in their faces, or see them bent over candles as they look at old rooms and dusty shelves.Friends of theirs are the Bentley family, who are allowed a peek into many of their family adventures. Find them all listening to birds sing while they look for buried treasure, or listening to bassets howl on an autumn night. Though there is a sad moment between them, it is also strangely filled with joy and contentment, as those who are filled with light cannot be anything else.Perhaps the most exciting moment of all is when the Williams’ children find something on the basement landing of their home. The basement is not a place they are allowed to go to often, and the children have called it the cellar among their whispered stories, yet the discovery makes the cellar stairs a more easily traveled lane. . .
