America is made up of opposites: Our land boasts majestic high mountains and vast lowlands. America is also a land of contrasts: We are a rich nation, yet so many are poor. The America of this book, rendered with imagination and vision by 12 outstanding artists from diverse backgrounds, is the America that our children see around them. America: A Book of Opposites is a visual celebration of America and a challenge to our children to cherish it, because they will one day inherit it.
