Synopsis

Everybody has their own little world...

Pablo likes singing with the birds up in his treehouse, Frank and Melvin build fantastic mystery machines, and Clara dreams of faraway planets and galaxies...

Where is your little world?

A little world is any place where a child’s imagination is free to blossom. Where is your child’s little world? A treehouse, a fort made of blankets, a playground? Little Worlds shows a diverse group of children in their own self-constructed little worlds as they explore and play freely, develop their identity, and learn to understand others.

Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers by Julia Martin Burch, PhD, with more information on ways to encourage your child’s imagination and identity, while also fostering a sense of empathy for others.

About the Author:

Born in Paris in 1975, Geraldine Collet studied modern history and taught for 14 years, first in the Seine-Saint-Denis department, then in the Aisne, in the city of Saint-Quentin where she currently lives. She is now a full-time author and writes principally for young readers. She has published about 60 books for children, some of which have been translated into Chinese, Korean, English, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, Dutch, and Italian. A multifaceted illustrator, Sebastien Chebret mixes it up with sundry paints and media: everything from gouache to acrylic and watercolor, from collages and repurposed paper gleaned here and there in secondhand shops to a growing use of digital tools.
