I love the illustrations in this book however the text falls short for me. I love the idea but I don't think its as well executed as You Are Stardust or other similar books. The wording is a bit awkward in some parts with an odd juxtaposition of sweet sentiment and scientific fact. Also, the links between some of the concepts are a bit tenuous or at least would be difficult to explain to the intended audience, which begs the question, who is the intended audience?

Thank you Net Galley and publishers for an advanced reader copy.

This book has great illustrations. The concept of the story is appreciated, but seems a bit advanced for kids.

I'm not sure all kids will understand the link between us and nature. I think this book does a great attempt at it. It has delicious vocabulary for kids and might work well for older kids.
One thing that bothered me about this book was that it was describing the link between nature and humanity and uses beautiful language, but then included the word poop, which is offputting for me.

Lovely story of the interconnectedness of all creatures on Earth. No matter who you are, you really are never alone! Nice explanation for little kids. I can't comment on the illustrations, tho'. They didn't download properly. The bits I was able to make out seemed detailed, so maybe a one on one book.
