Description

From Here to There is a picture book that explores the spatial concepts of location through two character friends named Here and There. The story shows how Here and There are similar but can never play together because Here is always in one place while There is always somewhere else. The book is intended for early readers in grades K-3 with a reading level of 1.9 and was first published in 2016 by Albert Whitman & Company.

Quick Summary

Two best friends who are practically twins but can never meet because one lives in "Here" And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda other is stuck in "There" makes for a hilariously relatable concept that turns everyday location words into characters kids can't help but root for. Little readers will giggle at the silly predicament and start spotting "Here" and "There" everywhere in their own daily lives. If your kid loves the playful wordplay of Dr. Seuss or the simple-but-smart concepts in "The Foot Book," they'll be enchanted by this. Perfect for kindergarten through second graders who are learning location words and love a good "what if" story.
