Inspired by Ren McCormick's speech in Footloose, There's a Time is a playfully illustrated storybook reminding us all that "there’s a once upon an every time". It tells us to celebrate the moment as it will soon change, and offers stellar life lessons like: run right into high tide, sleep outside, time travel and it's okay to cry.
