If All The World Were... by Joseph Coelho
5.0
If All the World is a book about GRIEF and how to cope with it.
The book is written in 1st person perspective of a little girl, who is really close with her granddad. She loves her granddad and understands he is getting old. Then one day... no more granddad.
She picks up her journal and starts painting and writing down her memories of her granddad, so that she never forgets them and the happy memories of her granddad stays with her forever.
This book is a great way of showing little kids how to deal with grief. We all loose our loved ones all the time. Be it our parents, our grandparents, a pet... We all have different ways of dealing with it. Some of us gets angry, destructive, others become withdrawn and becomes frustrated. But this book shows another healthier way of dealing with it. By remembering the person we have lost and all the good times we spent with them.
Like all other children books by this publisher, the illustrations of this book is also really charming, colorful and very attractive. My almost 4 year old son really loved it <3
