Add a CommentWhat beautiful poetry and sentiment! Gorgeous illustrations!
One of my favorite feel good picture books. Quietly sends the message that we are all connected in some way, to each other. Lovely illustrations, too!
I like the drawings in this book.
A beautiful book that made me very nostalgic for family vacations! Visually stunning, and the sparse language lets kids fill in the rest with their imagination. It keeps my 2 year old's attention because of the pictures, and I usually adlib a few descriptions as well. Great for summer time or before bed reading (as it is a little 'slow').
This book has a neat idea; it lists many parts of the world and nicely draws each section into a whole. The conclusion is the same, for it shows that all the previous parts are part of something larger. It is a good book to teach kids how important the little things are in making our world what it is.
As a parent, I loved this book, thought it was beautiful. However, my 3 year old daughter didn't go for it and never wanted to read it.
this book was pretty boring.
I liked their sand castle.
