Let us take a trip across time and space to witness the marvels of Sacred Places by Jane Yolen and @nodavid2018. The book consists of a series of poems exploring holy sites, revered monuments, and locations of cultural significance around the world, including Greece’s Oracle of Delphi, England’s Stonehenge, India’s Bo Tree, and Japan’s Itsukushima Shrine. Yolen’s original verse rings with lyrical language, and Shannon’s paintings, rendered in acrylic on illustration board, emphasize the wonder and mystery of the ancient subjects. #sacred #places #holy #world #book #books #childrensbooks #beautifulbook #beautifulbooks #beautifulbookcover #beautifulbookcovers #picturebook #picturebooks #picturebookillustration #picturebookillustrations #picturebookart #childrensbookillustration #childrensliterature #illustration #kidlit #kidsbooks #bookworm #booklover #booklovers #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #instabook #instabooks
