The Qualities of Children that We Thought Were Stronger than Bombs - Paperback

by Siamak Vossoughi (Author)

The Qualities of Children that We Thought Were Stronger Than Bombs is the story of the time before a bomb killed a child. It may have been a moment, a day, a week, or a year before. It is a story that is meant to celebrate their lives and the absolute genius of childhood. Peace is the opposite of war, but childhood can seem like a truer opposite, a more tangible one, and this book seeks to make a case for that possibility.
