Jago.
"Thank you, God, / for the sun smiling on our earth / to wake up the day..." Members of a biracial family give praise for their many blessings including shelter, food, the plants and animals of the earth, and "your love holding us together." The text is adequate; the real draw are Jago's warm digital illustrations, which occasionally have the appearance of collage.
