Somewhere, at the Same Time

A board book that invites readers to pause and observe the world as a web of simultaneous events. With a close and curious voice, the book speaks directly from an intimate and reflective tone. A sequence of images unfolds, connecting natural and vital actions that happen—literally—at the same time, somewhere.
Without naming specific places or people, the text evokes essential moments in the cycle of life through scenes linked not by a linear narrative but by a poetic and contemplative logic. The reading flows like a shared reflection, where the small and the profound coexist in harmony.
The illustrations, entirely handmade using collage techniques, add organic textures, suggestive shapes, and an enveloping color palette. Paper cutouts, overlays, and visual silences accompany the gentle rhythm of the text, creating a visual universe where nature takes center stage.
A work with a repetitive structure, open-ended images, and an approachable language, ideal for fostering curiosity, a connection with nature, and a sense of wonder from the earliest years of life.
