Everybody Travels
Everybody Travels is an eye-opening collection of stories about our interconnected human experience. Because everybody on planet earth is on a journey.
Celebrate empathy, connection, and togetherness with this touching follow-up to the bestselling interactive book Everybody Counts.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday... any day... you may be travelling to the supermarket, the park, or the seaside. But it's not only you—everybody travels, all the time. This is a book jam-packed full of lovely stories, big and small, all about the human experience. It is a beautiful reminder that we are all ultimately on a journey together!
Each person in this book is on their own personal journey. Whether that journey is in the pages of a storybook they are reading, or on an airplane trip to meet a long-lost relative at a family reunion, we are moving, being moved, arriving, and departing all the time.
Read the clues on each page about where that person is going and why. Enter their world and work out their funny, sometimes tragic, bizarre, and ultimately human story on their journey through life, sometimes at the beginning and sometimes at the very end.
This book can be read on many levels by many ages, with more to discover as children grow up. This makes it a truly sentimental and timeless keepsake that teaches important lessons only when the time is right. At moments profound, funny, and silly, it is a reminder that we are all in it together; a story that promotes compassion and tolerance for strangers and newcomers in their finest and worst moments, and a reminder that we are all somewhere travelling along our life's path as individuals.
