In its seemingly simplistic style, it hides much timeless wisdom that will be enjoyed by children, but also readers of all ages. It is a poem that hints of love transforming pain and sorrow into humor, joy, and acceptance. The book is an extraordinary poetic/artistic gift delivering a powerful and timely message that we can love and joyfully accept those who are different from us. Christopher's Garden is a story of a gorgeous garden created by love and family and community filled with wonder, incorporating new ways of seeing and being that has a gentle persuasive power to move and change each reader for the better forever. And with each reader, so changes the world. |
