Everything Is Connected

A magical meditation on the powerful idea that we are connected to everything and everyone.

Playful illustrations and funny, rhyming text show readers all of the many ways we are linked to every big, small, hairy, slimy, snuggly, scaly, floppy, flappy, bristly, buzzy, beautiful creature on Earth.

"One of Bala Kids's inaugural releases, this waggish picture book takes its title to heart, emphasizing readers' connection to an eclectic roundup of people, objects, and phenomena."--Publishers Weekly

"Jason Gruhl invokes Dr. Seuss with some light rhyming and brings up everything that entrances children--tarantulas, slime, comets, you name it. Ignasi Font's visually complex and incredibly funny illustrations (a blobfish that looks like Squidward?) will keep kids observing even on the hundredth read. The book is destined to become a dharma classic."--Tricycle

Everything is connected. And since you are part of everything,
you are connected to everything:

to pharaohs, Ben Franklin, T. Rex, ancient Greece, to love and to poverty, hunger and peace
