Speaking to the Mind and Heart of any Child

Imagine the beautiful moment when you share this heart-warming poem with a child dear to your heart. It is not only the simple yet deeply moving words but the sweet pictures that accompany each phrase, that nurture the mind and heart of the reader - be they young or old. Each phrase and each image lends itself to myriad conversations about the beauty of cultural diversity, social justice, and our deep connection to our communities and our planet.

Learning to Love Diversity

Each picture in the book tells a story and lends itself to story-telling. The watercolor images depict children from around the world in their natural environments leaning into their inherent states of joy, mindfulness, wonder, and appreciation, despite the challenges that they too might face in life. They convey the message that We Are One.

Learning about Love and Kindness

Each phrase of the poem centers on a deep aspect of being human - (inner) beauty, friendship, love, pain, justice, forgiveness, and home. So it brings the reader and listener to the realization that we must treat others only the way we wish to be treated - with love, kindness, and deep respect.

This gorgeous and thought-provoking picture book is recommended for children of all ages, but also for anyone working with children. It is a wonderful gift for any occasion.
