It worked

I got this book to help my 4 year old class understand the world around them just a little better. 4 year olds are just realizing others have feelings and to care for their friends. This year's group just wasn't getting it. I read this book to them. Afterwards I asked what Peace felt like for them. I got some great answers. I offered the book to another teacher and she too felt the children understood the book and got a lot out of it. It isnt a book you read and just put back on the shelf. Lots of talking about each page and the class adding their thoughts. So if you want a book that helps a child to think get this one.

a lovely book

i got this out of the library and read it to my kids, 6 and 4 years old -- we all enjoyed the images it contained and my kids were eager to add their own impressions, which made for a memorable experience -- the book itself is poetic, moving, and often amusing, and the resulting conversation i got to have with my kids was an added, invaluable bonus.

Beautiful message for all ages

I came across this book while Christmas shopping. The story asks Children of all ages "What does peace feel like", "...look like", "...taste like" ect. I had tears in my eyes while reading it,children have such amazing and off the wall answers to questions like these. I believe that people of all ages should read this book, especially with everything going on in the world at the moment. Stories like these give me hope for a brighter future.
