What if the impossible were actually possible? What if we turned our
dreams into action? What if our 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 conceptual 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, which might
just change the world.
