We Share One World
By Jane Hoffelt
Illustrated by Marty Husted
Whether we awaken to the spray of an ocean wave,
the wind blowing from the desert,
Or snowflakes dusting the trees, we are part of something truly magnificent. Whether we live in China, Algeria, Russia, or Canada–whether we work in the fields, the waterways, the mountains or the cities–we all share one world.
Through a young boy’s eyes, we visit children from many cultures–flying kites in Japan, swinging through the jungles of Costa Rica, playing the didgeridoo in Australia…
You and I can dream one dream…
We share one world–let’s live in peace.

Blizzard
By Carole Gerber
Illustrated by Marty Husted
A young boy watches from a window as a blizzard
covers the earth in a blanket of snow.
When the wind subsides, he bundles up and goes outside to leave his own special imprint on the wintry scene. Told in verse from the child’s perspective, Blizzard contrasts the coziness of home with the wildness of nature and celebrates the beauty of both.
