A family reconnects around the table

Violet misses the family gatherings that once centered on their table: sharing food, making memories, and catching up with one another. As everyday distractions pull her relatives apart, the table itself grows smaller, giving the story a visual way to show their distance. Violet hopes to bring everyone together again. The picture book links family tradition with time spent together, gratitude, and the work of renewing connections across generations. Its illustrations are described as watercolor, shifting from monochrome toward color as the family reunites.

An Amazon Best Children's Book of 2021

Celebrated, bestselling creator Peter H. Reynolds brings his signature touch of love and kindness to this special, timely picture book, as families now, more than ever, are rediscovering and reevaluating what means the most: time together with one another.

Violet longs for the time when her family was connected: before life, distractions, and technology pulled them all away from each other. They used to gather at the table, with food and love, to make memories, share their lives, and revel in time spent together. But now her family has been drifting apart, and with nobody to gather around it, the table grows smaller and smaller.

Can Violet remind her family of the warmth of time spent together, and gather around the table once more?

A mystical fable that feels at once timeless and utterly of the present moment, Our Table is renowned, bestselling creator Peter H. Reynolds at his best. Exquisite, expressive watercolor tells a tender story, growing from monochrome into luscious, joyful color as Violet's family is reunited around the beloved table. An ode to traditions that unite families, Our Table brings readers together with a universal message of gratitude.
