| Summary/Abstract |
"Do you think one person can make a difference in the world? Many people believe the answer is no, but Jeremy Gilley proved the answer is yes." "Jeremy believed there should be a day dedicated to peace every year, a World Peace Day, and he made it happen. He traveled the globe, meeting with leaders such as Kofi Annan and His Holiness the Dalai Lama to get support for his idea. His enthusiasm and tireless efforts convinced the governments of the world to create a day of global cease-fire and nonviolence that falls on September 21 every year. More and more people participate each year, and Jeremy's story will make you think: What can I do for peace on September 21?"

| Summary/Abstract |
In this translated classic, Rousseau argues for the preservation of individual freedom in political society. He says that we can only be free under the law by voluntarily embracing that law as our own. Hence, being free in society requires each of us to subjugate all our desires to the collective good, the general will.

| Summary/Abstract |
Battles, protests, standoffs, strikes. We hear about them all the time. On the surface, a battle and a protest don't seem to have much in common, but they're really just two ways of handling a dispute. One uses violence, the other uses signs and picket lines. But both start as a disagreement between two groups of people. Both are conflicts. Using real world examples, Why Do We Fight? teaches kids to recognize the structures, factors, and complex histories that go into creating conflicts, whether personal or global, as well as the similarities between both. They'll be given tools to seek out information, enabling them to make informed opinions while learning to respect that others may form different ones.

| Contents |
Introduction : what is conflict?
