All The World

BY LIZ GARTON SCANLON, ILLUSTRATED BY MARLA FRAZEE

Brief Description:
With "All The World", Liz Scanlon and Marla Frazee have created a children's book whose every page seems bigger than the books 11x11 dimensions. Wonderfully spacious and full of effortless detail, Frazee's illustrations perfectly compliment Scanlon's rhythmically paced lyrical text. The story follows a family in a charming beachside community through a peacefully busy day. With very few words, the reader really does get a sense of all the world, from the big to little, personal to interpersonal, and the interconnectedness of the whole sha-bang. As the inside jacket says, "All the world is here. It is there. It is everywhere. All the world is right where you are. Now."
