There were also times when I almost cried." -Will Mohan 6th Grade"This book is wonderful! I loved it. This really gave me a lot of information that I didn't know about him. And he must have had a tough life."- Robin Leigh Gallagher 7th Grade

ChildrenGrowing up unaware though love, of a sudden They've grown up, and hand in hand Wander in crowds (their hearts caught like birds, Profiles pale in the dark). The pulse of mankind beats in their hearts.
On a bank by a river, holding hands- A tree stump in moonlight, the earth a half-whisper-The children's hearts rise over the water. Will they be changed when the get up and go?
Or look at it this way: a goblet of light tilted Over a Plant reveals unknown inwardness.Will you spoil what has begun in you? Will you always separate the right from the wrong?
