          Every World Children’s Festival has the quality of a miracle
          because of the hope that children bring and the new ideas
          they carry back to improve their lives and communities. At
          the 2019WCF, a drizzle that could have drenched the fes-
          tivities ended just as abruptly, clearing the skies to create a
          double-rainbow over The Ellipse next to The White House                          Alejandro Goldzycher, Page 22
          where the festival was being held. Everyone gasped at this
          rarest of sights.
