Childrenof Heaven
A Story About Empathy, Unity, and Humanity, Illustrated by the Children of War
Children of Heaven is a children's story about the things that connect us, regardless of where we come from. Through the experiences of children from different countries and cultures, it explores empathy, friendship, kindness and our shared humanity.
A book about children, created in part by children.
The book is illustrated by children who have been affected by war and conflict. Their artwork brings the story to life and gives children living through extraordinary circumstances an opportunity to contribute their own perspective to a story about childhood, connection and peace.
It reminds young readers that while children may grow up in very different circumstances, many of the things that matter most to them are the same.
