What a Wonderful World This Can Be
by Mary-An
Description
What a Wonderful World This Can Be is a ground-breaking picture book about how small acts can have big consequences. Author Mary-An tackles large topics like sustainability, bullying, and poverty, as well as incredibly heart-melting themes of kindness, bravery, and persistence. In this book, a little girl wonders at the wonderful world that is all around her. Although, she is slightly put out when she sees someone begging for food, or oil in the ocean, or even a bully at school—what can she do? One thing at a time! "One piece of trash picked out of the sea, one word of kindness to someone in need, one word to a bully, one hug to a friend, a thing one by one, though the things never end."
