Written perfectly for **young minds that might not fully comprehend** how big the world is, or the number of people on it, this fun children's book will plant the seeds of the ideas in their minds. With its **playful poetry**, **bouncy rhymes**, *Everybody's Somewhere* asks children to **expand their perspective**, and follows-up with fun illustrations. Award-winning author Cornelia Maude Spelman invites children to **imagine other people** in other places doing different things, to be delighted by new ideas, and to be reassured that everyone is important and **sharing the same world**.
