Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"An original book with wide appeal." -- School Library Journal
"A delight to share again and again." -- School Library Connection
" Simple on the surface, this sweet story imparts important truisms about the planet we call home." -- BookPage

"Encourages readers to find inspiration everywhere." -- Booklist
From a child's point of view, this lyrical picture book looks at the relationship of nature to the human world and the place we call home.
From the edge of the sea to a high mountain top, everything has its place in the world and all living things are connected. The world around us has a lot to tell us if we take the time to look and listen. This tender and comforting picture book celebrates the wisdom in many of the things great and small that make up our wonderful world.
"A Paula Wiseman Book."
Illustrations and easy-to-read text reveal lessons that nature teaches, such as how, like the sun, one can bring warmth to others by smiling and shining even when things look dim.
Ages 4-8.
