Editorial Reviews Book Description In this joyous celebration of childhood, photographer Laura Straus has collected fifty intimate black-and-white images of children at play and combined them with charming quotes from her subjects. For parents or anyone longing to recall what it is to see the world through the eyes of a child, this book provides the perfect window: Boys and girls jump for joy, play dress up, share a secret, and laugh with abandon.
In the uninhibited words that only a child can speak are jewels of wisdom about everything in the world, from the poetry of Jack, age seven, who defines a vibration as "a motion that cannot make up its mind which way to go" to the truth of three-year-old Eve's observation that "it is always darkest just before I open my eyes."
A Child's World opens readers' eyes to the wonder of childhood again.
