We Are One: This is My First Medicina Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798893900644)

As bees buzz about, gathering nectar, a little girl hears something the grown ups around her have long stopped listening for: We are one.

WE ARE ONE follows a young girl who discovers, quite by accident, that she can understand what the bees, the butterflies, and the old trees have always been saying. That every living thing is needed. That no one is more important than another. That every person, every belief, every nation, comes from the very same Creator.

At first she shares what she hears with joy. But the adults around her do not know what to do with her words. They call them lies. They call them sin. They tell her to stop imagining things, to be quiet, to grow out of it.

But she cannot stop listening, and she does not want to. The voices only grow clearer to her, even as she struggles to understand why her mother cannot hear them too.

In the end, it is the bees and butterflies and the trees who remind her of what she already knew all along: the adults have not lost the truth, only their ability to hear it. And their voices, like her gift, will always be there for her, waiting patiently, whenever she is ready to listen again.

Written and illustrated by the author, WE ARE ONE is a gentle, luminous story about spiritual gifts, belonging, and the quiet, stubborn truth that every creed and every color comes from one and the same source. A tender read-aloud for young children, and a soft nudge for the grown ups reading along beside them.
