In our global world learning about transportation and how goods make it from the place of production to distribution is important. This book explains to children how goods travel to make their way to shelves or front doors, demystifying instant access to goods.
Absolutely loved reading this book with my 6 year old! He has been interested in ships, specifically container ships and I was grateful to find an age appropriate book on the topic.
Illustrations were beautiful and used colors to highlight the actions of the page.
This is well illustrated, and I liked the way that the author plays with color!
The story is nice because it can be read on two levels, which I always appreciate in a book. I don't think all the opposites that are highlighted necessarily make that much sense on the page, but I do think this is a beautiful book that would appeal to a specific kind of kid, and love the multilevel reading experience.
I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. It's a great book that illustrates how books travel from Asia to the United States.
Every Here Has A There is a non-fiction children's book that explains how books are shipped from Asia to the USA. My favorite part of the book are the illustrations because they are beautiful and informative at the same time. From loading a cargo ship, to what is on the ship, to crossing the Panama Canal, and finally to the the bookstore, this book will have kids thinking about where things come from and how they get here! I do think that this book is trying to do too much. Along with the chronological story of shipping, each page has a pair of opposites. I think they are meant to appeal to very young children, but I found these opposites distracting. This book will appeal to children's innate sense of curiosity and open their minds to the idea that everything comes from somewhere! Thank you to #NetGalley for an advanced copy in return for my honest opinion.
What a fun book! I love the concept of using books and their journey from point a to point b. Great use of color and illustrations!
With simple basic drawings and colors we travel the 4 weeks from Hong Kong to New York City through the Panama Canal (which takes 12 hours travel time all by itself!). The books go from cartons on trucks to containers aboard special large ships to warehouses at the piers and then by small trucks to get to your bookstores! and on nearly every page we find opposites!
The illustrations are by Brian Fitzgerald and convey everything simply.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone.
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Charlesbridge via NetGalley. Thank you!
