All the World by Liz Garton Scanlon
Title: All the WorldAuthor: Liz Garton Scanlon
Illustrator: Marla Frazee
Story: The joy of life and family is beautifully celebrated in this picture book about a family’s enjoyment of a day at the beach. The multicultural family is large and loving and enjoys a myriad of activities. These are chronicled in words and phrases that rhyme and flow to create a wonderful mood of joy and promise.
Illustrations: in addition to creating the illustrations, Marla Frazee also hand-lettered the text of the book. The artwork, rendered in black pencil and watercolors, beautifully illustrates the extended family’s love for one another and all the world. The sheer size of the illustrations adds to the impact. Each page is about 11” x 11” and many of the illustrations are double-page spreads.
