PEACE receives ‘splendid’ Kirkus Review

From KIRKUS REVIEW:

A visually splendid primer on peace.”

“In this attractive package, lyrical, rhyming text explores various forms of peace.”

“Extra attention is paid to inclusivity...This imperative is found in the illustrations as well, in which a multiracial cast of children includes two who wear eyeglasses and one who walks with forearm crutches.”

An authors’ note takes an extra step: Peace means humans living in harmony with one another and living in balance with nature too. During war and conflict, wildlife is also affected.”

The Pauls offer strong, bold words, hoping they’ll land in the hearts of children everywhere.”

“The lulling text will work well to soothe young activists…[p]oignant, broad strokes invite a deep delve.”
