When one toddler in a childcare setting takes all the toy animals
for herself, she discovers that monopolizing all the toys can be a
bit lonely. Will offering one of the animals to another child help
bridge the gap? In this gentle exploration of early friendship,
toddlers will recognize the tension between wanting everything to
be "mine!" and the desire to connect with other children.
This thought-provoking, Â playful picture book from NYT Best
Children's Book author Bruce Handy and Ezra Jack Keats Award
winning illustrator Ashleigh Corrin plays with the idea of how life
would be if certain of the things we love most were no longer here.
What if one day, all the birds flew away? Mornings would be
quieter. Skies would be plainer. Worms could relax. What if there
were no more bugs? What if there ceased to be day and
night? By asking how our world would change if it lacked
birds, water, or people, and how we would feel about that, this
playful text from Bruce Handy (The Happiness of a Dog with a
Ball in Its Mouth), accompanied by joyful art from Ashleigh Corrin
(Layla's Happiness), invites readers to celebrate the beauty
and wonder of existence, and all that makes our world what it is.
So often, our gaze is on the future, on that better world to come,
but what if the world as it is—with light and water, salt,
earth, and animals, plants and insects, air and
stars and French fries—is sufficient, and it is only
us who have not known how to cherish it, or to love it all well
enough? This book reminds us that all we need is here, if only we
attend!Â
