There isn't anything else on the market like this book. This is the book Naomi Drew was born to write, and she pours her whole life experience into it as a mother, a teacher, and an expert on conflict resolution. What Naomi has done is written a book that tells parents how to keep peace at home, step by easy step, while also raising compassionate kids to help make peace possible in the world at large. That's an amazing combination, and Naomi pulls it off. Readers will learn exercises to calm sibling battles, as well as how to teach kids to become peacemakers at school and work through organizations to foster global peace.

As a mother of young children, I have been working to create peace within my family (and myself) for many years, and your book truly inspired me to take the next step: to expand from peace in my family, to working actively to make peace in the world. You remind us that the personal is global, to be the change you want to see in others, and most of all, that one person who cares really can make a difference--not only as a parent, but also as a human being in the world, the world which we are creating for our children's future. Thank you, Naomi Drew.

Highly Recommended! I don't think there's a more timely book out there.
Filled with concrete information, practical suggestions, and timely advice
for anyone who cares about creating more peaceful homes and a more peaceful
world.

Thank you Naomi Drew for giving parents and teachers what is so badly needed in today's uncertain world. The tools provided in this book offer real solutions to dealing with the challenges of difficult emotions, ways to maintain calmness and practical ideas on how to keep peace in our homes, schools and communities. The wise and informative ideas in this book have the power to transform lives and give kids a sense of peace and hope that is often hard to find in today's world. The book is easy to read and understand and the strategies are simple to apply. I recommend this book for any parent or teacher who wants to make a difference for a child.
