*****LOVE THIS BOOK****** September 24, 2008
I bought this book for my daughter when she was about a year old. We read it every night and she loves this book, she knows it by heart. She is now 2 1/2, the pages are ripped and taped yet we still read this book at bedtime. I want her to have peace in her life and be able to bring peace to others. This is truly a wonderful book. This was my first Todd Parr book and now I am looking for more. He is amazing.

I love this book and have bought 4 copies of it to give as gifts. I originally stumbled across it in a store and gave it to my niece for her 2nd birthday. Since then each time my wife and I have been presented with the need for a gift for a small child we have come to Amazon and bought the book. I also got one for our church's childrens library. The pictures and colors are great. One line of text per page and the message is awesome. In a world where "Peace" is so often defined as the absense of war, it is nice to see a book with many interpretations that help to define the word for children in positive terms, not by what it is not. br /br /"Peace is having enough pizza in the world for everyone!" What kid won't understand that?br /br /The book also comes in two sizes. Both are fine, but if you are planning on using it to read to a group of children (at church, school, or a library) I would recommend the larger size.br /

A four year old boy seems to think if you are for peace you can't enjoy the power rangers and other toys with weapons. This book explains what peace is. This four year old boy seems to get it.br /

I really like this book and my daughter (4) likes it too. It's a great way to talk about all different kinds of people, music, clothes, etccc
love, love this book!!! June 26, 2007
We received this as a Christmas present for our daughter and we all enjoy it tremendously. I'll never forget reading it to her as a toddler and coming to the page where the boy and his dog are thinking of each other and her saying "he loves the dog, the dog loves him. love, love.. two loves!" The illustrations are adorable and the message is as simple as that: love, love. I highly recommend this book!
