i got this out of the library and read it to my kids, 6 and 4 years old -- we all enjoyed the images it contained and my kids were eager to add their own impressions, which made for a memorable experience -- the book itself is poetic, moving, and often amusing, and the resulting conversation i got to have with my kids was an added, invaluable bonus.
I came across this book while Christmas shopping. The story asks Children of all ages "What does peace feel like", "...look like", "...taste like" ect. I had tears in my eyes while reading it,children have such amazing and off the wall answers to questions like these. I believe that people of all ages should read this book, especially with everything going on in the world at the moment. Stories like these give me hope for a brighter future.
I got this book to help my 4 year old class understand the world around them just a little better. 4 year olds are just realizing others have feelings and to care for their friends. This year's group just wasn't getting it. I read this book to them. Afterwards I asked what Peace felt like for them. I got some great answers. I offered the book to another teacher and she too felt the children understood the book and got a lot out of it. It isnt a book you read and just put back on the shelf. Lots of talking about each page and the class adding their thoughts. So if you want a book that helps a child to think get this one.
My 5-year-old enjoys this book. I got it to help add the word 'peace' to our daily repertoire but felt I needed some help giving the word a concrete definition. The text of "What Does Peace Feel Like" is derived from interviews with children as to what peace means to them in terms do their five senses. My daughter and I especially liked "What does peace sound like? Like a growling bear of war who gets shot with a love arrow and the fighting stops." We took this quote and have used it to help my daughter work through her upsets with some humor that she can visualize. Great concept.
Words cannot tell you how much I love this book. The illustrations are gorgeous. The writer asks children from various questions simple questions, such as what does peace feel like or taste like. The answers are amazing. This inspired my class to write a peace poem using the 5 sense and peace. A great way to teach International Peace Day.
Great book, good pictures, and really great for a thread on having kids say what they think peace feels, looks, smells, tastes, and sounds like! Tells the names and ages of the kids that said it. Also great for learning about the 5 senses. Cute, inspiring, and sets kids off on the road to peace!
