With stylised illustrations and rhyming text, this book does a great job of teaching kids about what peace - and keeping the peace - actually involves.
Hence, it is not only a cute and user-friendly tool, it is also extremely important. Because the younger that children are when they learn about the importance of being kind and contributing to the creation of a peaceful environment, the better things will be for everyone.
There were 2 things about the book that I particularly liked. The first was the stress on the importance of learning to pronounce your friend's name properly, which speaks to the respect for other cultures in our increasingly global world.
The second was the need to have an understanding of what conflict does to other creatures with whom we share our planet. This is a terrific book to share with young children.
