God's One Language - de Jong, Dianne

. .

Résumé :
Dianne De Jong strives to teach children that amongst our visible differences, we are all the same. While on a mission trip in Haiti, Dianne was speaking with a sweet, faith-filled, elderly Haitian man. Although this man did not speak a word of English, the translator was able to communicate to her what this gentleman was saying. He smiled and pointed up to the sky saying, Thank you for your kindness. We will talk again because we will all speak the same one language in heaven some day. This union of being as one and speaking one language that everyone comprehends sets the premise for the book, God's One Language. Children can listen to the moral of the story that it does not matter where in the world you go, all humans smile, laugh, cry, sleep and dream in the same language. Dianne believes love is universal and that all children will benefit from hearing this story which embraces having empathy for all we meet because we are all the same and recognizing we are all brothers and sisters as children of God. Dianne's other three children's stories include My Collection, God's Brilliant Shining Star and Where In The World?
