Story Pool

Together, the stories and artwork in this global story pool capture themes of friendship, forgiveness and reconciliation in situations where fairness and integrity are not readily apparent. The courage to act peacefully, especially when all one knows or remembers is war, is embolden by a deep respect for the dignity of self, others and the Earth in all our diversity.

We invite you to browse the titles and look at the accompanying artwork. When you find a story that catches your attention, read it through.

• What did the story make you think about?
• Has anything in the story challenged your ideas?
• Is there anything in the story that might apply to your own life?

For activities designed specifically for each story, please consider the accompanying Training Manual
