Peace and Me cover

This illustrated book explores the meaning of peace through the lives of Nobel Laureates, encouraging young readers to reflect and engage.

What does peace truly mean to you? Peace and Me invites readers to explore this profound question through a beautifully illustrated collection of inspirational ideas. Endorsed by Amnesty International, the book draws from the remarkable lives of Nobel Peace Prize Laureates from the 20th and 21st centuries, including influential figures like Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, and Malala Yousafzai. Each page is a journey that encourages young minds to reflect on the essence of peace and its importance in our world.

Designed for children aged 7 to 11, Peace and Me serves as a child-friendly exploration of a vital theme. It aims to spark discussions about what peace means in personal and global contexts. Through engaging illustrations and thought-provoking insights, the book encourages readers to consider their own definitions of peace and how they can contribute to fostering it in their communities.

This collection is not only an essential addition to any bookshelf but also a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the significance of peace in today's society. By connecting young readers with the stories of esteemed laureates, Peace and Me inspires a new generation to think critically about peace and to take action towards creating a more harmonious world.
