"Starting with a baby in the warmth of a mother’s arms, this story follows a young girl as she grows and explores the mysteries of the world around her. Ishta Mercurio’s text revels in the ebb and flow between curiosity and discovery, making the world feel infinitely large one second and “safe, warm, small” the next. Paired with Jen Corace’s joyful illustrations, Small World is especially timely for those who were inspired by the recent all-female spacewalk. (For ages 4 to 8)"
