Hope Is an Open Heart

(3) K-3 "Hope is sad tears flowing, making room for joy...knowing that you are loved...finding happiness in simple things." This book offers a series of vignettes focusing on the cathartic effects of hope. The philosophically mature text is handsomely illustrated with photographs of young children from many different cultures. An author's note provides "more thoughts on hope."
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
