"God was sad that the Prince and Princess had refused to see the answers to their prayers.…"

Water and oil, light and dark, summer rain and desert wind: In this fable of opposites, award-winning author Sandy Eisenberg Sasso shows children and adults of all faiths and backgrounds how self-centered actions affect the people around us, and how by working together we can work with God―to create a better world.
