A Little Peace

Not only are the pictures amazing, but it is written very simple. Perfect for my pre-schooler!

This book would be a great book to use on World Peace Day September 21. To make the most of this book for your class or child would be for you to read it first and write down what country the photo is from and what is going on in the photo. The photos are terrific, but with National Geographic the photos have to be awesome! The last 2 pages are a note on and about Peace. There are famous quote like " Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding" Albert Einstein and also a famous Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu - " If there is to be peace in the world. There must be peace among the nations. If there is to be peace among nations, there must be peace in the cities. If there is to be peace in the cities, there must be peace between neighbors. If there is to be peace between neighbor. If there is to be peace between neighbors there must be peace at home. If there is peace at home, there must be peace in the heart. And finally Treaties are negotiated by governments. Peace is made by people! The photos in this book include: Gzipur Bangladesh, Katmandu, Nepal, Near Kitale Kenya,Bali Indonesia, London England, Chichicastenango Guatemalla, Padova Italy, Outside Shendi Sudan, Base-Terre Guadeloupe, Srinagar Sashmir India, Trashi Yangtse Bhutan, Fengdu China, Bagdad Iraq, Salvador Brazil, Kabul Afghanistan, Leh Ladkh India, Tokyo Japan, Mekong Delta Vietnam, Al Kut Iraq, Edinburgh Scotland, Mazar-E Sharif, Afghanistan and in the United States of America Albuquerque New Mexico, Dover Ohio, New Orleans Louisianna and Brooklyn New York. There is also a flat map of the world to show where the photos are from. If you are looking for a book for younger children about peace I sugguest Can You Say Peace - Karen Katz or Somewhere Today - A book of Peace by Shelley Moore Thomas.

I love to re-read this book anytime I need to find the peace in my life.

Just a great book with a great message and very touching pictures. Also explains where all the pictures were taken with a world map.A Little Peace
