If Everybody Did That?!

  • A funny yet thought-provoking picture book
  • How do we treat each other, our environment and ourselves?

What would happen if everyone just threw their rubbish on the ground? Or broke things without thinking? If everyone was always mean to others and in a bad mood?

And on the other hand, what would happen if everyone was always considerate of each other, and helpful? 

In a series of amusing little pictures, Manuela Olten shows the meaning of unspoken rules of social interaction. 

A picture book with lots to discover and discuss.
