　　We Share One World
　　By Jane E. Hoffelt

　　As we turn the pages of this book, we enter the mind of a thoughtful young boy as he muses over countries in the world that are far away and maybe vastly different from his own. While gazing out over a hilltop, he begins to realize that even though the places may be far away, they must be the same in many ways because we share one world.
　　Even though Tanzania is a long way from where we live, we share the same sun. The children there play under the brilliance of golden sunbeams, just as we do.
　　The wind that blows the kites of children in Japan is the same wind that ruffles wisps of hair on the heads of our children. Russia may be cold and snowy, but snowflakes taste the same to all children. Other languages may sound strange to our ears, but the laughter of children everywhere can often carry a more powerful message than words.
　　When I saw this colorful book, overflowing with pictures of other children at play, my immediate reaction is delight! Then, as I turn the pages, it’s no problem understanding how we are all so similar. The words of the poem are uncomplicated and plain spoken, and the beautiful watercolors allow us to absorb even the smallest detail. That is when they can use their imagination to weave their own very personal story. I highly recommend this new offering from Illumination Arts, We Share One World.
