The story begins with the author's own wedding portrait, where he and his wife were arrested for protesting, and expands into a global journey of peaceful resistance. It covers major historical moments from Rosa Parks to the Tree Sitters and the Salt March. It is a gentle but firm introduction to civil disobedience and social justice, suitable for elementary-aged children who are developing their internal moral compass and sense of empathy.
