Eighteen People Changed the World

Eighteen People Changed the World is a children's book that includes eighteen brightly colored illustrations of different individuals who changed the world by being great examples with fun poems to accompany each one. Each poem tells a character's story about doing a good deed or sharing their positive perspective and will be enjoyed by children and adults alike The idea behind the title and the poems is that the world isn't going to change on behalf of a world leader, a wealthy CEO, or an international celebrity. The change the world needs is going to happen through the people we meet in our lives who through small gestures, change the way we see ourselves and the world around us. The poems are written in a easy-to-read, upbeat rhyme sceme, ideal for reading out loud. Each illustration is bright and engaging for young children who are unable to read the book on their own. This book wasn't written for a specific age group of children to read on their own, but more so for adults and children to enjoy together. Parents and their children, teachers and their students...it's for everyone and it will certainly encourage everyone to think about those who have changed their world in some way.
