Overview
From award-winning author-illustrator Elise Gravel comes a funny, empowering exploration of what it means to live, work, and thrive together.
Acclaimed creator Elise Gravel (Killer Underwear Invasion!, This is My Brain!) brings her trademark humor and punchy art to a big question: Why do we need one another, and how do we make sure everyone feels welcome?
Humans have always lived in groups. We need each other to survive. Sometimes it’s fun to be around other people. Sometimes it’s hard. But as a community, we need to protect each other, teach each other, and care for each other.
Through quirky characters and brightly colored illustrations, Gravel shows young readers how respect and solidarity can create safer, stronger places where everyone belongs. Refreshingly direct and brightly entertaining, Together makes an important subject easy to understand and discuss.
