Children are able to convey in their drawings thoughts and feelings they cannot possibly express in speech or writing. They simply do not have the words with which to do it, and like our ancient ancestors, must learn to draw before they learn to write.
Drawing communication, is elemental and basic, also universal, can across any existing language barrier with the greatest of ease.
A wise, compassioate man in charge of one of the many preschool orphanages makes drawing a routine activity for the youngsters.
Drawing speaks louder than words.
