An ant on a leaf! A new friend at the beach! Wonder Baby says, “Wow! Whoa! You’re a part of me I don’t yet know.” Even when confronted with injustice in the world or unkindness at the park, Wonder Baby learns that wonder is the root of empathy and love. Wonder Baby chooses to love everything alive.

With lyrical text by activist and award-winning documentarian Valarie Kaur and vibrant illustrations by Cynthia Alonso, World of Wonder encourages young readers to look at the world with revolutionary love.
