​

Right now you are here . . . reading this book. 

​

Now imagine what someone else is doing at this exact moment two blocks away. 

​

What about someone across the country? Or an animal on the other side of our big, beautiful planet? 

​

What else is happening round the world, right now? 

​

A variety of colors and textures throughout the book will keep young readers engaged while each new scene will encourage curiosity, an adventurous spirit and a sense of awe that we can all share.

★ “Reminds young people that our world is so much wider than it might appear and invites them to explore these far-flung areas—not as tourists but as members of a global community…. A brilliant, uplifting, and world-embracing tale to unite us in divisive times.”  

—  Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW 

​

“Thought-provoking… encourages young readers to broaden their perspectives…. A meditative, inspiring musing about being part of a global community.” 

—  Booklist 

​

​A "visually lush, expansive meditation on simultaneity and shared
existence….For those beginning to sense that there’s a vast world
beyond their own doorstep, this philosophical work affirms how lives occur contemporaneously, 'together, right now.’”

— Publishers Weekly ​
