Cain and Abel: Finding the Fruits of Peace

Jewish Lights Publishing, 2001 - Juvenile Nonfiction - 32 pages

A very long time ago, when the world was new...two children walked in God's garden called Earth. One was named Cain, the other, Abel. They were the first children, the first brothers. The story of anger out of control is a familiar one, one that our children see replayed every day in our society of violence -- whether in news stories, on television, or on the playground. Cain & Abel: Finding the Fruits of Peace recasts this biblical story in a way that invites adults' and kids' conversations about anger and how we -- grown -- ups and kids alike -- have the power to deal with it in positive ways. Best-selling author Sandy Eisenberg Sasso reminds us all that our actions affect countless other people...and even the whole world. It's up to us to change the world for the better!
