O Jerusalem Voices of a Sacred City Author:John Thompson (Illustrator), Jane Yolen A holy place for three religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Jerusalem has long been the most beloved and sought-after city in the world. Here, in stirring poetry and evocative paintings, images from all three faiths are presented in an inspiring tribute to the enduring strength of the human spirit.
This is a beautiful book, as one would expect from Jane Yolen. It includes photos and drawings of Jerusalem, poems and prose, and feels like a love song to this very special city.
