Remember This Always

This book for young readers invites them to notice how every living thing is connected to the others. Anna Ikeda explores the idea that the bonds between people, and between people and the wider world, are sacred, and that these relationships are what give our lives their meaning.

Andrée Young's illustrations are built from intricate collage. Layered, detailed pieces come together in scenes that echo the wonder of the natural world, so the pages also work as a quiet visual reflection that encourages children to look closely at the beauty around them.

The book is available through the Metta Center for Nonviolence at mettacenter.org/bookstore/childrens-books.
