We Are One cover

From an award-winning author, a New York Times bestselling artist, and a Coretta Scott King Honor artist, lyrical text about how we are all one is paired with beautiful illustrations of two girls and their families.

If you’re a star, I’m a moon.

Together we dream.

When we are together,

we are one.

Two girls—one from a city who lives with her mom, and one who lives by the beach with her dads and brother—come together at a lantern festival in a beautiful story of how we are all one, whether near or far, friend or newcomer.

From an award-winning trio, this celebration of community, friendship, and the natural world features poetic, lyrical text paired with a vibrant visual tale of two characters, each illustrated by a different artist.

“Azúa Kramer offers up word pairs—seashell and wave, spark and idea—that provide creative metaphors of partnership in this idyllic picture of oneness through camaraderie…Employing smudgy, layered coloring, digital renderings from Figueroa and Mata portray figures of varying skin tones interacting…” Publishers Weekly

“The text illustrates and celebrates the idea that no matter who you are, where you live, or what you do, we are all in this together. Short sentences pair with big ideas and colorful, detailed illustrations that convey a sense of community for everyone.” Midwest Book Review
