Synopsis "Sweet People are Everywhere (in English)"

"Deepened and expanded by its illustrations, this is a stunning introduction to the true meaning of a global community."--School Library Journal They are all over the globe. Sweet people can be found from Canada to Congo to Cuba, from Afghanistan to Australia, from Ireland to Iraq...there are sweet people in the thirty-seven places listed in these pages and almost everywhere else on the planet. Take a trip through the lines of this large-hearted poem by Alice Walker and meet some of them! Sweet People Are Everywhere, an illustrated picture book featuring a poem by internationally renowned writer and activist Alice Walker, is a powerful celebration of humanity. The poem addresses a young boy getting his first passport, taking the boy--and the reader--on a journey through a series of countries around the globe where "sweet people" can be found. Walker's heartening message is celebrated through Quim Torres' deeply felt illustrations.
