An invitation to young readers to roll up their sleeves, get inspired, and take action to build a sustainable, just, and loving world.

Peace, Love, Action! is an illustrated, illuminated A-Z of everyday actions that directly make a peaceful, fun, and vibrant world. With original artworks bringing each action to life, "make friends," "go local," "cooperate," "forgive" --seemingly small deeds can really add up! Illustrated by Tanya Zabinski in her characteristic earthy style, each action comes with an inspirational mini-bio of a real hero who exemplifies that action, from Thich Nhat Hanh ("breathe") to Wangari Maathai ("plant"), and follows with a set of "What You Can Do" prompts. With a foreword by singer-songwriter and activist legend, Ani DiFranco.

Praise for Peace, Love, Action!



  • "Peace, Love, Action! gathers a diverse mix of activists who contribute to peace in the world in inventive and individual ways. It gives the reader a lens to see each day as an opportunity to practice peace and justice." --Sister Helen Prejean, campaigner against the death penalty and author of Dead Man Walking
  • "It's a cliché to say this is an illustrated book for our times, but it is! Tanya Zabinski has created a much-needed book for the middle-grade reader--and for teachers to use to introduce exemplary people and concepts. Stunning, woodcut-like artwork puts the frosting on this cake!" --Tomie dePaola, award-winning illustrator/writer of more than 270 books, including Strega Nona and Quiet
  • "The art work herein and the stories that accompany them teach and inspire. They warm the body with feelings of hope and invigoration. They challenge the mind to view the world in a positive and life-affirming way. Within these pages you can meet my friend and a host of other peaceful activists, and I hope you will find yourself as inspired as I do." --from the foreword by Ani DiFranco
