She introduces children to the concept of \"we\" -- that humans are a big part of the world, but a small part of all of existence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn the vastness of the universe, with galaxies swirling through space, the book begins with simple words printed on the darkness. Moving closer to our world, we see the solar system, our sun at the center. Closer still, we see the huge ball of fire, the sun, and the third planet out from it -- our blue Earth. From Earth looming huge on the page, young readers view smaller and smaller things, from mountain to tree to man to child to kitten to mouse to flea to microscopic beings, amazing in their complexity.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJO ELLEN BOGART\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of many books for children, including \u003ci\u003eThe White Cat and the Monk\u003c\/i\u003e, which has been short-listed for the 2016 Governor General's Award and was illustrated by Governor General Award-winner Sydney Smith; \u003ci\u003eJeremiah Learns to Read\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eDaniel's Dog\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGifts\u003c\/i\u003e.
