Description

You Belong is a rhyming bedtime book that takes sleepy children on a journey to all the places they belong. From rocking chair to room, from room to house, neighborhood, state, country, world, solar system--and back--the story satisfies the explorer in every young child, introducing a universe of wonder where all belong. This multicultural story depicts a Latino-Anglo family and the son's Black friend in a world of many cultures and races. How to learn geography through detailed illustrations giving children the fun of finding a red wooden swing in every picture, and of identifying miniature landmarks and animals of mid-Atlantic states, the US, the world, and even the solar system. As the sleepy child explores even further with a telescope, he leaves his stuffed bunny on the red swing, until Dad spots the missing one and reunites them. The book ends back in the rocking chair again, because "you belong in my lap in the old rocking chair that sits in the room at the top of the stair."

Author Biography:

Judy S. Young has written poetry such as the text for "You Belong" in every post where she and her family have lived. Postings in Mexico, Costa Rica, and New Zealand helped to inspire the diverse characters in the book. Judy was inspired by seeing the fun her own children had when first exploring from room to house to neighborhood. In "You Belong" the adventure continues to country, world, solar system, and back. A retired United Methodist pastor, Judy now lives in Gettysburg, PA, where she also writes columns for the "Gettysburg Times." Sally Becker is an award-winning artist and a well-known art educator in Adams County, PA. She works with drawing and painting media including encaustic. In "You Belong" Sally combines her love of teaching children through art with images from her own childhood and family, and glimpses of the universe in which we all belong.
