Description

Celebrate the colors of children and the colors of love—not black or white or yellow or red, but roaring brown, whispering gold, tinkling pink, and more. Sheila Hamanaka's All the Colors of the Earth is a classic to share alongside such favorites as We're Different, We're the Same, All Are Welcome, and The World Needs More Purple People. This beautifully illustrated book "celebrates the beauty of diversity to the fullest through engaging, rhyming text," commented Charnaie Gordon in her Brightly review. All the Colors of the Earth "would be a wonderful book to use in multicultural classrooms in schools." "How better to celebrate ethnic diversity than to look to children, the hope of the future This glorious picture book does just that."—Booklist "A poetic picture book and an exemplary work of art. The simple text describes children's skin tones and hair in terms of natural phenomena and then describes love for these children with rich colors and flavors. A celebration of diversity." —School Library Journal

Author Biography:

Sheila Hamanaka has been writing and illustrating children's books since 1987. Her books "Peace Crane" and "Grandparent's Song" are thoughtful reflections on peace and the multicultural roots of our country. Her award-winning book "The Journey" is based on an epic, five-panel painting honoring the history of the Japanese in America. The work focuses on the concentration camps in which her parents were interned during World War II. Her popular "All the Colors of the Earth" celebrates the diversity of children and parents. "A Dangerous Life," her first graphic novel, and other books created with the Animal Welfare Institute reflect her deep concern for all living things and for our Mother Earth.
