Even though, this book is categorized as a children's book, it is timeless and ageless because the underlying theme of the book is love; teaches children at a very early age of the positive effect love has in their everyday lives. This beautifully, delicately and highly sensitively illustrated book shows the exquisite taste and inner joy of the love the artist has toward the world. It wakes up feelings inside when staring at the elegant artwork. So mush detail, time, and care into each page! The illustrations and text are etchings made on individual cooper plates where a needle is used to draw into wax ground applied over the copper plate. The plate is then submerged in acid bath which bites only into the exposed parts of the metal surface. The wax is removed, ink is forced into the etched depressions, the unetched surfaces are wiped, and an impression is printed with a special printing press. After the print is produced, the artist water colors each print by hand. The style appeals not only to the eyes, but also to the feelings inside the heart. It seems to calm and comfort, while bringing up feelings of excitement and wonder... Time to start exploring and to make this a better world for everyone in it.
