WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - June 5, 2013 - PRLog -- Give your grad the gift of hearts.

SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART (Dial Books/Penguin Young Readers - $12.99), based on Eric Telchin’s Boy Sees Hearts project, is the perfect gift for the graduate who is about to enter a new world. This innovative book pairs hundreds of unretouched heart photos with poignant text. Telchin says: “The book’s purpose is to encourage the reader to view their world from a different perspective.  Once they see one heart, they can’t stop.  It’s really a gift that lasts forever.”  As Daily Candy said about SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART: “Love’s always in sight.”

SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART confers these four life-long gifts to your favorite grad:

APPRECIATION

SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART teaches the graduate to view their world differently. According to Publishers Weekly, “The subtlety of the images points to the value of being receptive to and perceptive of one’s environment.” Unshelved said: “Every page showed me the simple beauty of the everyday world.”

OPTIMISM

While some of the hearts featured in SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART are beautiful in a traditional sense, some photos show hearts discovered in sidewalk cracks, garbage, and spills. According to Telchin: “I think it’s even more powerful to see beauty in something discarded or overlooked.  It reminds us that love can be found anywhere.”

SELF-LOVE

SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART empowers the graduate to see beauty in themselves. After visiting a second grade class in South Florida, one girl wrote the author: “When I see a heart, I feel loved. And when I feel loved all the mean names that people called me slip away.”  Seeing hearts is a tool your grad can use when they need some extra love.

SHARING

In addition to stories behind some of the hearts, SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART features a note from the author. When Eric Telchin saw a heart-shaped puddle of melted ice cream in 2009, he had no idea he could inspire others around the world to see and share hearts. SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART isn’t just a book about seeing beauty, it’s about sharing that gift with others.  

As Time Out New York Kids says: “It’s a great way to say I love you.”

SEE A HEART, SHARE A HEART has a suggested retail price of $12.99 and is available wherever books are sold.
