Peace Books
Stories are the secret reservoir of values: change the stories individuals and nations live by and you change individuals and nations.” Ben Okri, Nigerian Poet and Novelist.
Through a collaborative grassroots campaign the observance of Peace Day will become a global celebration. Every year celebrity supporters of the Peace One Day movement will campaign through social media to people worldwide to write Peace Books - children’s books about peace. Publishers working not-for-profit with Peace One Day will choose the best of these books for global release. Reading a Peace Book on Peace Day will become a much-loved universal tradition.
