All Fall Down [Board book]

LeUyen Pham’s adorable, vibrant illustrations bring Mary Brigid Barrett’s singsong text to life in a board book for the very young.

From a bright tower made of blocks to a boisterous family playing a game of Ring Around the Rosie, there are many ways to join things together — and watch them tumble in a delightful heap!Barrett celebrates lightly destructive fun of all kinds, whether it involves toy blocks, sticks and stones, or dinner... Working in gouache, Pham offers a multicultural crew of kids who couldn’t be more excited about building things up and then sending them flying.
