Review Detail

Together, United contains a powerful cosmic message about unity. The lyrical quality of the words and illustrations depicting the cosmos with hazy images of the children all combine to make the message feel inclusive and universal. One powerful page has 2 children facing each other with many colors in their skin and the words, “Two-gether we are the BIG BANG!” It is hard to feel “other” or in separate categories with a statement like that. This book is both a celebration and a powerful reminder that we are all part of the human race on the planet Earth, and we can do great things united.
