Everything changes, from the birth of new
stars to the endlessly shifting tides and tiniest life cycle.
Everything in this universe changes. Even us. Sometimes
we're lucky enough to see these changes happen, while others take many
lifetimes. Explore the awe-inspiring processes of change in the natural world,
from the life of a bright shining star, the endless motion of the tides, and a
caterpillar transforming into something new, to our own changing thoughts and
feelings.
All Things Change is a lyrical and
beautifully illustrated book looking at the many different processes of change
in the natural world, covering geology, ecology, biology and more. It also
embraces the philosophical topic of change - how do we approach changes that
make us feel sad? How do we cope with changes we can't control?
Ideal for children to explore independently or with parents,
it holds a special appeal for anyone struggling to find stability in a rapidly
changing world.
From the book:
In everyone's life, change is going to happen, one
way or another. Learning to accept it, and make the changes you want to, is
very useful. Preparing and planning for a change helps you cope with it when it
comes. Getting used to a change can take time, but bit by bit, it gets easier.
Changes can bring new, wonderful opportunities, and make
life more interesting. They can lead to new discoveries and take you to places
you never imagined! And, although change can be hard, it's much better than
nothing ever changing at all.
