"For fans of All the World, a poetic celebration of simplest things we need to be happy, and the beauty of sharing with others. From basic essentials like the air and water – whispering through trees and encouraging deep breaths, bursting from playground sprinklers and filling our cups – to the wonderful warmth of family and friends – cooking delicious meals and volunteering together – All We Need distills each simple element of a full life so young readers can appreciate and be thankful for them. Kathy Wolff's melodic verse and up-and-coming artist Margaux Meganck's lush and cozy city scenes culminate in a joyous celebration of community and giving, with a message: When we have all we need, plus a little to spare, the only need left . . . is to share." -- publisher
