In his first illustrated book created specifically for readers of all ages, Oliver Jeffers shares a very brief history of humanity and shares his dreams for where we go from here. With his bold, iconic art, Oliver Jeffers follows the human path from the dawn of our species through history, sharing profound, sometimes poignant, commentary on our present, and then offers a challenge: Where do we go from here? How can we create new stories and new systems that allow all of humanity to flourish? How can we journey toward a collective and robust future? Illustrated in his world-renowned art style, Oliver Jeffers’ reflection on the patterns that have led us to where we are today, the stories we have governed ourselves by, and those we might adopt going forward, is insightful, moving, and powerful. A must-have for anyone who wants the next generation to inherit a world to be proud of--and a perfect gift to share with those you care about. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

An author's note (an essay, really) follows the book, intended for an adult audience. "This book is the culmination of...observation and optimism."
"We will do what we have always done, which is to adapt. We just need to do so faster. And together."
"With distance comes perspective." (overview effect)
"And as an artist, it was perhaps my biggest epiphany that the most powerful thing we can do as civilised human beings is change the story. We can always, always change the story....People are all, simply, a collection of stories: those we are told, those we tell, and those told about us. People become the stories they believe."
"But how do we change how we're taught to think?"
"Hope...requires imagination about an unwritten future." ( )
