Price: $10 | Monday's child is fair of face. All children are, but some can be made more so. Beautifully composed, The Perfect Child is a lovely-worded poem accompanied by narrative stories of children around the world found by the doctors of Healing the Children and brought back to Seattle for risky operations that made the children even more perfect. The artwork of Janet Strong and photos will tug at you while the poem digs at your heart and the narrative makes you cry.
I believe that the author, JoAnn DeLazzari, wrote the poem before she started working for Healing the Children. She donated her work in order to help the children of the world who need it. JoAnn is better known for her works of fiction. Her historical romances, like The Rebel Bride, are the very best. The Perfect Child stands alone. It is a keeper.

All the proceeds go to Healing the Children. In many ways this little book is a teaching tool you can use to help children understand the world around them and aid them in accepting others who are different from themselves. It also can help children who are sometimes deemed different to understand they are perfect children, too. | | |
