A Little Peace

Now that the elections are over, we can all use: All it takes is....


Dover, Ohio, USA A four-year-old girl expresses herself. Freedom of speech was guaranteed by the Bill of Rights in 1791.

Barbara Kerley has written another exceptional book with a great message and photos that touch my heart. I found a wonderful author interview of her at Becky's Book Reviews.

The text within A Little Peace is simple, yet rich and the back pages of this book are informative with a world map and caption of where each photo was taken. Under each caption a tidbit of historical/cultural information is added. It's perfect for little ones and photo buffs too!

We're nearing the end of 2008 with the holidays coming and families getting together. Let's all hope for a little peace around the world.
Oh... and Mom, if your're reading this, do you think you can knit me a little hat like the one in this post?
