The illustrations are very literal, perfectly matching the text any word that appears on a page is represented with an image. All of the other pages follow this depiction in a similar manner. This contrasts the ideas of old and new in a simple way for children. The children are climbing on a large, fully grown tree, while the old man is sitting with a new tree that has yet to be planted. On this page the image depicts an old man and young children. The illustrations paired with the descriptive words allow for an easy understanding for children while still conveying the larger conceptual message. The descriptive words are known and relatable to all children and connect to the deeper theme about the world. The book follows an AA BB rhyme scheme, and when read aloud sounds much like a poem. The pages alternate from descriptive words about particular situations to a more general theme about the world… From morning to night, the beach to the garden, and sun to rain, this book highlights the importance and value of everything the world has to offer. ![]() ![]() This story depicts the daily lives of individuals from the same community. This week’s marvelous picture book is entitled All the World, written by Liz Garton Scanlon and illustrated by Caldecott Honor medalist, Marla Frazee. ![]()
