A book about all living things, including you and me, at this very moment.

At this very moment
There’s a mouse
There’s a small mouse waking up in the early morning sun.

And at this very moment
There’s a whale
There’s a huge whale singing whale song deep beneath the sea.

This is a beautifully poetic bedtime book for children ages 2 and up. Using simple but evocative language, it describes all the wonderful things that are going on around the world right now. In doing so, it asks the young reader to be present in the moment and to feel at one with the giant, magnificent organism that is our planet.
