John gave the world so many thoughtful songs about relationships; our global need to live together in peace and the importance of caring for our environment. These messages, as relevant today as ever, and Johns music and voice continue to touch our lives and lift our spirits."Three of Christophers books, Sunshine On My Shoulders, The Tree in the Ancient Forest and Stickeen, have won the American Bookseller Associations Benjamin Franklin Award for best childrens picture book of the year. Chistopher is also the illustrator of Wonderful Nature, Wonderful You and the beautiful Earth trilogy, Earth and You - A Closer View: Natures Features, Earth and Us - Continuous: Natures Past & Future, and Earth and Me - Our Family Tree: Natures Creatures. Christopher lives with his wife and cat in central Ohio.John Denvers love for nature, his hope and belief in the future, and his brilliance of expression inspired so many people toward "higher ground." Although he died in 1997, we are pleased to bring his timeless lyrics to the next generation. As he wrote in one of his songs:Celebrate living,The laughter that sings in heart of a child,The freedom that flies at the call of the wild,Celebrate living.
