Book Overview

A Kirkus Reviews Best Picture Book of the Year

A 2026-2027 Red Clover Book Award Nominee (VT)

"A quiet yet masterfully rendered reminder that decency is always worth the hassle." -- Kirkus Reviews (STARRED REVIEW)

"A marvelous English-language debut in an emotionally urgent story...a moving work about a small, essential act of kindness." -- Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)

A resonant reminder to make the time to be kind, set in the bustling city of Seoul.

One rainy morning, the Seogang Bridge hums with traffic--and in between the cars is a tiny kitten. People mutter to themselves, but no one wants to stop or slow down. The raindrops pelt the road; the cars screech and honk; the kitten mews. Finally one car pulls over...

With atmospheric art by acclaimed illustrator Myungae Lee, Late Today asks readers to choose compassion in the midst of busyness. This stirring story is perfect for cat lovers, city dwellers, and anyone who's ever lost themselves in the rush of life.
