Overview
Four diverse children describe life through their eyes, sometimes feeling great, and sometimes feeling unseen. As they wonder about others who don't see the same way, a joyful discovery unfolds. Can we find a way to connect with others who have a different way of viewing the world? Read When I See Through My Eyes as a poem, or sing it as a song. Join in a journey toward becoming the ally everyone in our world needs! Engaging watercolor illustrations invite readers to imagine themselves in other points of view. This story in verse is also a song. The full piano-vocal sheet music is included, as well as information on how to listen to a recording of the song.

"""When I See Through My Eyes is motivational, thought-provoking, self-reflective and absolutely beautiful. I love the message. The illustrations are vibrant and visually appealing and the melody is spot-on."" - Cynthia Ukah, Special Education teacher and author of A Marriage Made in Heaven: Love, Tragedy, Faith, and Recovery ""What a noble song idea!
