Review:
"Michael Foreman has a flair for turning a book into a special occasion." (Quentin Blake)
"An important book" (The School Librarian)
"No less an impressive statement for being a work of art . . . Foreman's magical blues and yellows and the indefinite lines of his drawing underline the symbolic message . . . A quietly disturbing book this, which I fancy children will help their parents to understand." (The Junior Bookshelf)
"Foreman's characteristically spacious composition and subtly graded washes are in close harmony with his theme of the vastness and fragility of the natural world." (TLS)
"I can't praise One World enough . . . a wonderful thought provoking book about just how fragile our planet can be." (The Bookbag)
