Living Water
by
Jean Ranola-Collier
Water is a part of us. Both life-giving and life sustaining, it ensures the continuation of our planet, and the life of all creatures on Earth. In this visually stunning book, Jean Ranola takes us on a journey within. Written as part love-letter to the water which cleanses us, and part poetic plea about the absolute importance of clean water for future generations, she speaks to our role as individuals in ensuring that our water is preserved. Read this to your children as a tool toward environmental awareness. Through pictures and stories, our children will gain the deep understanding needed to change our future.
Jean Ranola was born and raised in the Philippines and moved to Canada in 2007. In that same year she began to write poetry, and soon blended her writing with her passion for spreading environmental awareness. The youngest of ten children, she was brought up by her mother-a woman with a huge heart who continues to inspire Jean’s writing today. Deborah Strong is a British Columbia artist whose depictions of animals and birds have won recognition in regional and national exhibitions. She views herself as a citizen of the Earth and is committed to the conservation and preservation of its wild spaces and precious resources. Her illustrations for Living Water were painted with dye on silk. Visit her website at: JeanRanola-Collier.com
