 Beautiful Book & Message March 8, 2010

We just got this book from our library and have now added it to our wishlist to purchase. The images are dreamy and we really like the sing song lyrical flow of the words. As an attachment parenting mother I really adored the babies in slings and breastfeeding. I was also very happy to see things that we hold dear to us, such as a community gardening and all different kinds of families and the beautiful scene of everyone together making music.
A lovely addition to the home library for open minded attachment parenting families.

On Friday afternoons I read books in my daughter's first grade classroom. Often there is one kid or another who can't sit still for an entire book - wants to wander, wants to talk, etc. When I shared All The World with 18 first graders, there was not a peep. Not a motion. All the kids, and the teacher too for that matter, sat rapt with attention and in awe of the beauty and poetry of the words and illustrations. Beautiful book that will surely be a classic. I love this book.
This book is a gift to all the world. March 6, 2010

All The World is a true classic. The combination of Liz Garton-Scanlon's poetic writing and Marla Frazee's extraordinary illustrations is magnificent. There is a certain timelessness to this book. The people in the book are doing things that they could have been doing together for centuries (eating, going to the beach, gather to play music, going to the farmer's market, laughing, playing...). What I love the most about this book is that it truly does celebrate "All the World" - Babies, children, teens, parents, older adults, people of color, same sex couples, etc. It's showing what's real; we are all different and that's just right. Thank you Liz and Marla for creating such a masterpiece which reminds us all of what's important in life.

As a Christian Mom of many, we are big fans of Frazee's Seven Silly Eaters. I was very disappointed with her "Babies, Babies" book that has multiple same sex couples depicted. Shame on me for forgetting this and buying this book without seeing it first. The pictures are not as blatant as the Baby book but there are two older women sitting together in a way that two older women would not normally sit (one arm around her shoulder and the other woman has her hand on her leg). If you like this sort of thing then buy the book but if you think that a couple should be one man and one woman, you will be throwing this book in the garbage as I did. Too bad. I like the quality of art work just not the indoctrination!
Great Children's Book - Bad Packaging February 10, 2010

This is a wonderful book - well written and beautifully illustrated. It holds both our 6 year old and 3 year old grandchildren's attention. I would have rated it 5 stars except it wasn't packaged very well and the cover corners on one side of the book were collapsed.
