Inspiration
I was hanging out with my friend Tae a few weeks back and stumbled upon two killer books that everyone must see. First, there’s ALL THE WORLD illustrated by Marla Frazee and Liz Garton Scanlon. I haven’t seen a more perfect book since Jonathan Bean’s AT NIGHT or Zetta Elliott’s BIRD (shameless, I know). See a detailed synopsis, and behind the scenes look here.
From the publisher:
All the world is here.
"); $(document).ready(function() { Ads.setSiteVariable(genres); }); // ]]>It is there.
It is everywhere.
All the world is right where you are.
Now.
Following a circle of family and friends through the course of a day from morning till night, this book affirms the importance of all things great and small in our world, from the tiniest shell on the beach, to warm family connections, to the widest sunset sky
