Review
'What Am I?' graphically shows that mankind's composition of a multitudinous variety of types of people is what we have, not in opposition to, but in common with each other. Our differences are supplementary and can be used beneficially for universal needs. -- Los Angeles Central Public Library
Product Description
'What Am I?' is an illustrated poem in book form. Its cover and 7 of its pages are in full color. The pages are separated by transparent sheets to protect the illustrations, which are suitable for framing. Mr. Redman's motivation for this fine writing was to help offset racial and national prejudice. 'What Am I?'graphically shows that mankind's composition of a multitudinous variety of types of people is what we have, not in opposition to, but in common with each other. Our differences are supplementary and can be used beneficially for universal needs.
A Parents' and Teachers' "What Am I?" Guide for Children is a sequel to the "What Am I?" book, made for parents and teachers to relay the philosophy to children. For those who may not be familiar with poetic abstractions, Mr. Redman explains the meaning of the What Am I? poem. Its illustrated verses are repeated here in miniature for convenient reference. The drawings in this book may not be reproduced for resale but may be photocopied for children to color and draw on. The pages have been perforated for easy removal.
Lenn's message is important and seemingly ahead of it's time. Considering the crisis in our schools, communities and in the world, the importance of diversity education is paramount!
