Unfortunately, many children encounter prejudice, discrimination and racism in their daily lives. Because these can be tricky topics to address constructively, some adults are uncomfortable having an enlightening discussion about them with children who are important to them. In this book, the authors focus on relevant episodes in the life of one girl to provide examples of the kinds of pain and frustration a child might experience when they encounter this kind of behavior. With input from trusted parents, she learns the meaning of these negative words. She also has the chance to hear quotations about these topics from some of the greatest minds in the history of the world. By contemplating the ideas presented in this book, an adult can help a child better determine the kinds of choices they can make to address these kinds of challenges. Rather than focusing on factors outside our control, the basic approach of this book is to attempt to empower children to choose to think and act in ways that are likely to help them experience more inner peace and happiness. At the end of the book, in addition to multiple powerful quotations, the reader can find links to over two dozen sites or articles that can answer questions and/or stimulate further candid conversation about these topics.
