How to Change the World in 12 Easy Steps
Autor Peggy Porter Tierney Ilustrat de Marie Letourneauen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 mar 2022 – vârsta până la 8 ani
Taken from the life lessons of Eva Kor, Auschwitz child survivor, this title empowers children by offering concrete, simple actions that can change reaer's own lives, their community, and even the world. Charming illustrations bring lightness to a book with serious ideas that work.
"The simplicity of the 12 easy steps in this book is disarming and deeply moving. This no-fuss guide counts on children's humanity for its force, rather than spirituality or any whiff of religious thought, and in doing so, its impact is immense." —School Library Journal, starred review
"A touching and beautiful guide to consideration and kindness." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"Eva's greatest magic was her ability to connect with children, to introduce them to their own unimagined capability. This astonishing little book captures her spirit beautifully and will help to grow world-changes for generations to come." —Ted Green, Filmmaker of award-winning documentary Eva A-7063

Recenzii
"A touching and beautiful guide to consideration and kindness."
"Eva's greatest magic was her ability to connect with children, to introduce them to their own unimagined capability. This astonishing little book captures her spirit beautifully and will help to grow world-changes for generations to come."
"How to Change the World in 12 Easy Steps is an adorable children's book....This wonderful book should be nightly reading for little ones so that these messages become ingrained. I highly recommend this book!"
*Starred review from Kirkus
Everyone has the power to change the world, even children. All they need to do, encourages Tierney, is start small…, clean their room, or invite someone sitting alone to join them. Other steps are more nuanced: accepting people for who they are, never giving up on their dreams, and standing up to a bully without becoming a bully. Letourneau draws racially diverse children thoughtfully engaging with the wor…and amplify each step. The final step is a beautiful explication of forgiveness: “Forgiveness doesn’t mean what they did was okay…Forgiveness means that you decide you don’t want to be angry, and when the anger is gone, there is more space for happiness” It and the entire book were inspired by Eva Kor, a Holocaust survivor, who inspired may with her capacity to forgive.
