Before you were here, you were everywhere.
You were once the sunshine when it struck the trees. You were water, powerful enough to wear away mountains. You were soil deep beneath the earth.
Now that you’re here, the world waits for you.
Everywhere.
Follow a young boy as he explores the world around him and begins to understand that he is connected to all things. Blending a beautiful tale of new life with the science of the universe, this incredible picture book is a sweeping ode to a parent's love for their child, budding life, and the Earth that we live on, perfect for fans of Matt de la Peña and Loren Long's LOVE and Jason Chin's THE UNIVERSE IN YOU.
