Description
"A story that dares us to imagine peace, and poses a challenge to readers young and old alike: what ending will we write for ourselves? Peace, or war? Quarrelsome Hawk tires of conflict and wills himself to change - and whoosh! He turns into peaceful Dove. And that change brings more: with a turn of the page (and through the use of clever papercuts), tanks fall silent and are replaced by sowing tractors, warplanes turn into butterflies, warships stow their guns and transform into brightly-colored sailboats, guns shoot not bullets but bouquets of flowers, and all the land is enveloped by a comforting blanket of calm. People everywhere celebrate the coming of peace. And Dove, victorious, is glad - but still she worries: what if another, different Hawk lies in wait? She wonders: Friend or foe? How will we know? And how will this story end? A note at the end of the book details the inspiration behind the story and the book's creation, accompanied by images from Kor's childhood sketchbooks and a photo of the scissors he used to create the papercuts for The Hawk and the Dove."--,Provided by publisher.
