Illustrates the award-winning song about each person's responsibility to help bring about world peace. Includes a history of the song and biographical notes on the husband and wife songwriting team.

The world's need for peace is more urgent than ever before. Jeremy Brooks has gathered together prayers from Bosnia to Northern Ireland, from World War II Germany to China. They range from Taoist and Hindu lines to a prayer by St Francis of Assisi and from words by Archbishop Desmond Tutu to a daily prayer said by Muslims everywhere. A thought-provoking book with beautiful illustrations which add a universal touch, making this a very special book for children.

This heartwarming picture book reassures children that a parent’s love never lets go—based on the poignant lyrics of JJ Heller’s beloved lullaby “Hand to Hold.” “May the living light inside you be the compass as you go / May you always know you have my hand to hold.” With delightful illustrations and an engaging rhyme scheme, this book offers the promise of security and love every child’s heart longs to know. From skipping stones and counting stars to climbing trees and telling stories, every moment is wrapped snugly in the certain warmth of a parent’s presence and God’s blessing. With poignancy and joy, this bedtime read captures the unconditional love parents want their children to know but so often fail to express amid the chaos of daily life.

Margaret Roach worked at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia for 15 years, serving as Editorial Director for the last 6. She first made her name in gardening, writing a classic gardening book among other things. She now has a hugely popular gardening blog, "A Way to Garden." But despite the financial and professional rewards of her job, Margaret felt unfulfilled. So she moved to her weekend house upstate in an effort to lead a more authentic life by connecting with her garden and with nature. The memoir she wrote about this journey is funny, quirky, humble--and uplifting--an Eat, Pray, Love without the travel-and allows readers to live out the fantasy of quitting the rat race and getting away from it all.

ATTN: All Generals and Commanders of the Russian Ground Forces / Сухопутные войска Российской Федерации - General Oleg Salyukov, Aleksandr Matovnikov, General Sergey Shoygu, Gen. Valery Gerasimov, Gen. Nikolay Bogdanovsky and all military officers. REGARDING: Acting President and commander-in-chief of the Russian Armed Forces orders the Kremlin, the Federal Security Service and Main Intelligence Directorate (G.U.), to bring Vladimir Putin to Justice and make Peace with Ukraine. Dear Comrades of the Russian Ground Forces / Сухопутные войска Российской Федерации, As of today the Acting President of Russia - Mark O'Doherty - has taken over the command of the Russian Armed Forces - bringing Russia into a New Age of Peace and Prosperity. It should also be noted, that I am currently both the Acting President of the United States, as well as the acting president of Russia. (Since both Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin have agreed to make way, so that I can steer both Russia and the US through these troubled currents. So it will be only a matter of time before we make Peace with our neighbours in Ukraine. Hence it is imperative that Diplomacy and Dialogue is restored between Russia and Ukraine - so that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) can be restored in the International Community - and Freedom of the press will be restored in Russia. On that note, we would like to encourage all People in the Russian Armed Forces to join us in Meditation and Prayer to manifest Peace on Earth - in particular in Russia and Ukraine. PS: Once Peace between Russia and Ukraine has been manifested, we intend to replace NATO with a new International Peacebuilding Alliance. In our opinion this should have been done already after the Cold War, but which the US and EU neglected to do, missing the opportunity of a potential reconciliation with Russia - which the US and EU should rectify: ) Love and Light / Бог благословил / Бог благословить / God Bless Президент Российской Федерации / POTUS / The Crown / EU-China / AU Acting president of Российская Федерация, the United Kingdom, the United States, China and European Union Mark / BTB-Global Peacebuilding 28.

This is a book that defies categorisation. Let there be Peace is more than a collection of stories about workcamps and volunteering although the reader gets an intimate view into the experiences of anyone who forgoes the nine-to-five predictability of the West for what some call the 'developing' world. They also take the reader into unexpected places: the Middle East or apartheid-era South Africa. Furthermore, simple stories are augmented by letters and emails that chart the progress of the newcomer along with highly personalised musings by the author on the wider context of peace activism and volunteering. Let there be Peace is a book like no other. Tom Farrel, Freelance Journalist from Ireland
