A Superb Work of art and soul

I found this book at the library after reading "Learning to Breath" by the same author. I decided to buy copies of this book for family collection and for Christmas gifts. My six-year-old son was so moved by the children's images on the pages and he kept asking quesitons about their societies and their lives. We decided that we were going to do something to help these children. I could not thank the author/photographor for opening my son's heart enough. Thank you, Ms. Alison Wright. You soul touches so many lives and hearts. Thank you.

Spiritual Photography

Alison Wright moves beyond photography as she not only captures the physical essence of the children she photographs, she also captures the social and spiritual essence of these children. Each child leaps off the page and commands your attention. Alison takes the reader on a tour of the non-Western world and provides us a glimpse of these children's daily lives. By the quality and detail of the photos, it is obvious that Alison loves these children and successfully invokes compassion in the reader. Alison draws the reader into each picture through the beautiful imagery and vivid narratives which descirbe the various cultures of the children.
