Summary
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.
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!

What They're Saying
Critics Review
“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
“Use this book to spark thoughtful conversations or to prod children to think about just why they matter.”
—St. Louis Post-Dispatch
“An exploration of our links with everything from blobfish to galaxies.”
—Spirituality & Practice
“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
“A thin string loops and winds around the people, animals, playgrounds, prayers, and gardens of the world, everything connected in a timeless whole—even scary, ugly things like chicken pox, bullies, lies, and pollution. In this engaging introduction to social consciousness and environmental awareness, color and form are given to the invisible ties that bind the universe together, from the tiniest of cells and atoms to the vastness of the stars and planets.”
—Foreword Reviews
