Award winner: Caldecott Honor
Viewing this book was like entering an art gallery. Stunning illustrations. She depicts mankind with such knowledge and empathy. I am not sure how much the words will appeal to the age the publishers are marketing it (baby -8 years). Ms. Frazee takes the words from a Jewish baby-naming blessing/poem and illustrates them.
I love how it celebrates life, humanity, and human interactions.
*Highly recommend for older readers and adults who can analyze and appreciate the words. (warning: one illustration of one man kissing another man on the cheek with much feeling-under the section about tears)
-Borrowed from the library.
