Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. ( )

Readers will contemplate the concept of place through poetic text and whimsical illustrations that provide multiple perspectives about people’s homes, loved ones, and interactions. Even when you can’t see them—everybody’s somewhere!

Everybody's Somewhere is a rhyming concept book that explores a sense of self and place. Global in scope and culture, the cheerful artwork in bright but softly muted tones,shows a wide variety of children and adults from a wide variety of settings and locations—a city, a farm, a person in a wheelchair, campers, a soldier, and more.

"Each of us is somewhere
Here or there.

Each of us is someone
In our own somewhere."

This is a fine choice for storytime. (Read it first so as not to stumble over the rhyme.)
