One World by Michael Foreman
A brother and sister spend their day playing on the beach by a rock pool. They create their own tiny marine world in a bucket and, with its wildlife, shells, oil and even a tin can, it is a microcosm of the larger world outside.
"Michael Foreman has a flair for turning a book into a special occasion" * Quentin Blake *
"An important book" * The School Librarian *
"No less an impressive statement for being a work of art . . . Foreman's magical blues and yellows and the indefinite lines of his drawing underline the symbolic message . . . A quietly disturbing book this, which I fancy children will help their parents to understand." * The Junior Bookshelf *
"Foreman's characteristically spacious composition and subtly graded washes are in close harmony with his theme of the vastness and fragility of the natural world." * TLS *
"Breathtaking watercolour illustrations weave a touching beachside tale." * Baby Magazine *
