Let There Be Peace: Prayers from Around the World
By Jeremy Brookes
Fresh collection of young prayers for peace gathered from many different cultures.
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.
- Thought-provoking and with beautiful illustrations which add a universal touch, making this a very special book for children.
