What if we turned our dreams into action? What if your imagination could help solve real-world crises, like war, famine, and human rights violations? Through a series of seemingly whimsical questions, this middle-grade nonfiction book introduces readers to people and organizations that are subverting violence, war and totalitarian power. What if soldiers refused to carry weapons? What if fighter pilots dropped seeds instead of bombs? What if music could be a creative force for democracy? None of these ideas are impossible--in fact, they are all true historical examples of ideas that have been put into action. Accessible, engaging text introduces a different question and example on each spread. Evocative concept illustrations provide a light-hearted reminder of the power of imagination. This timely book encourages readers to think critically and dare to ask big questions: that might just change the world."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (page 39). 650 0 $a Social action $x History $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Political participation $x History $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Children's questions and answers $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Picture books. 700 1 $a Bloch, Serge, $e illustrator. 941 $a 6 952 $l CWPB586 $d 20221129011744.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20220331010231.0 952 $l CZPD706 $d 20211005010751.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924020142.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210211012125.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20201007082511.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=29A2FEBA089E11EBA1C2147F38ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
