Color My World

Color My World is an amazing interactive journey for children of all ages. Debbie Mancini begins the excursion immediately by inviting the reader to finish writing the opening poem and then draw a picture (in the space provided) to further express themselves. The author's imagination continues to lead the reader through an intriguing group of feel-good poems designed to make children comfortable in their own skin. The book walks through a variety of emotions and situations that encourage the reader to see things from perspectives they might not have thought of before, while subtly teaching them to journal their own thoughts ... right there in the book, in the spaces provided -- and those spaces will not be blank for long! The black and white illustrations by Jackie Cleary add depth to the book, while maintaining an innocent simplicity. Color My World, and its Origami Poetry Writer at the end of the book will bring out the creativity inside each child. And, if you are fortunate enough to attend one of Debbie's workshops, you will see for yourself just how Debbie unwraps kids' minds to discover that beautiful gift of creativity!
