At first thought, walking doesn't seem like enough action to actually make a difference. Of course, Peace Pilgrim didn't just walk. Her plan was more about meeting people on their level, in every day situations and having genuine conversation. By walking for years and explaining herself to anyone who asked, Peace Pilgrim made every day change. She got people talking and thinking. Her story also shows young readers that most people are generally good, kind and generous. This is a great one to use in a classroom setting to engage in a conversation about peaceful protest and simple actions that make change.
