I’m rather choosy about my children’s books, and this one is a smash at our house. All the World is a beautiful picture book that I do not get tired of reading to my sons. Both the illustrations and the message are wonderful.
Here’s one of my favorite sections of the book:
“Slip, trip, stumble, fall
Tip the bucket, spill it all
Better luck another day
All the world goes round this way.”
It just makes me feel calm inside and hopeful. I love it…
Love this one, we got it for Christmas. It’s beautiful, too. I think it won some kind of award?
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing!
I really like the part you shared and am curious about the rest so I will be venturing out to buy this one. The message of the book is so important for my oldest daughter to understand! Thanks!!!
I love, love, love Marla Frazee!!! One of our faves that she illustrated is The Seven Silly Eaters. Check that one out if you haven’t already. It is by Mary Ann Hoberman
Thanks! Sounds great!
I love picture books too!
