Drawing in the Dark (work in progress)

War stories are never meant for very young children. A well-considered visual experience, though, can help bring the significance of war into focus for a child learning about injustice. DRAWING IN THE DARK provides a place to start a conversation. Survive a bombing as seen through a young artist’s eyes. Consider the implications of war without dragging death through the door.
