A book to share when talking about conflict resolution and peace, particularly on a global scale.

How do you move on from hate? Two children plant the seeds of change in a forgiveness garden. Beautiful illustrations!

Read for 5427 class

The Forgiveness Garden pairs well with Hiawatha and the Peacemaker by Robbie Robertson. Both focus putting aside past grievances, violence, and differences to come together peacefully.
