Description
When school children from Kent, Ohio and Florence, Italy, were invited to express their thoughts about "Where I'm From" in poetry, the connections that emerged were remarkable. Their responses to this prompt demonstrate the underlying importance of home, families, the natural world, and the creative identities that children harbour within them.
