About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts asking big questions about the world or when you want to slow down and appreciate the small, fleeting moments of family life. It is a perfect choice for siblings adjusting to a new baby or for a child who feels overwhelmed by the fast pace of the day. This serene story begins in a quiet living room where a girl is drawing and her brother is taking his first steps, then it pans out to show what else is happening in the world at that exact second. The book beautifully illustrates the concept of simultaneity and global connection, showing that while our lives are individual, we are all part of a larger, pulsing rhythm. It is ideal for children ages 4 to 8, offering a gentle way to talk about empathy, the passage of time, and the idea that everyone has their own story. Parents will appreciate the cinematic perspective that turns an ordinary morning into a profound celebration of life.
