Tenemos El Mundo Entero en las Manos

This unconventional interpretation of the classic song finds a modern application with joyful illustrations that send

a message of hope and power to today’s children….A beautiful vision of a global community.

Kirkus Reviews

Charming…The importance of unity and community among the children is linked with

the solemn responsibility of taking care of the earth while being kind to every living creature.

Booklist

A beloved spiritual gets an imaginative and anthropocentric rendering in this vibrant picture book celebrating unity...

This is an ideal choice for story time or classroom reading.

School Library Journal

Earnest and openhearted.
