A lyrical picture book about the joys of travel-whether it's beyond the walls of your home or in your imagination.
To wander the world,
all you have to do is wonder.
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? How would you get there? Would you pack light or bring lots of things in a suitcase? Travel doesn't have to be to a foreign land via airplane or boat; it can also happen when exploring your own backyard or going on a walk around the neighborhood. Travel can happen when you let your mind wander and you visit all the fantastic lands you can dream up.
To Wander is a celebration of all the places and experiences that await us if we only open our eyes and hearts to the world-and how we can leave the world better than we found it with kindness and care.
