Connections to the Curriculum in English: This book helps students of all ages to see that togetherness is better than isolation and, hence, raise students’ awareness of a global world that we are all part of. Furthermore, this is a peep-through picture book with simple rhyming text and it encourages young learners to work with pronunciation and rhythm of the English language.

Summary: This book is a story about the power of togetherness both for support and change, like “Hear the song we sing to encourage and inspire. If we all sing together, one voice becomes a choir” and “We’re off to climb mountains, all the way to the top. Our friends keep us going – they won’t let us stop.”
