地球上的和平之歌（暢銷插畫家大衛．里奇斐德作品）Peace on Earth

 
　　你和我，一起加入愛和友誼的隊伍，
　　讓我們散播和平的種子，
　　讓它在地球上開枝散葉，開出繁盛的花朵。
　　儘管有時不免劍拔弩張，我們仍齊聲高唱「和平之歌」，
　　讓和平的樂聲，歡樂的氣息，傳唱到地球的每一個角落。
 
        Rain Before Rainbows 作者史密提．哈爾斯（Smriti Halls），和《森林裡的鋼琴師》、《星空下的願望》繪者大衛．里奇斐德（David Litchfield）再度攜手合作。以絢麗的插圖，繪出一段共同的旅程；透過故事，訴說我們一致的心願。
 
      和平的使者，帶著善意和勇氣踏上旅程，穿越烏雲壟罩之地，在紛亂中探尋方向，在彼此身旁欣賞大自然之美，傳唱和平的樂章。
     
      願「愛」和「友誼」，願『和平之聲』隨著這本繪本，傳送到地球的每一個角落。

From the creators of Rain Before Rainbows comes a beautiful book that lights a path for all those who dare to dream of peace.

　　"A story of peace that we should all be singing. Wondrous." Michael Morpurgo

　　A happy band of friends journey together, but dark clouds threaten their friendship and they lose their way in a story that starts in the safety of the happy and familiar, then goes on to explore the difficulty of discord and hurt; what it means to lose and find peace again; the bravery it takes to be a peace-maker; and the jubilance that peace ushers in. From smiles to small gestures, to natural beauty, we discover that while peace isn’t always easy to find, it makes love and friendship whole.
