The Island

By John Heffernan About · Illustrated by Peter Sheehan

A small child, unable to see, was befriended by a sea creature those with sight only feared. They enviously watched from the shore as the child fearlessly laughed and played with his new friend. This unusual story cleverly explored the meaning of happiness and how to create it. It is an engaging and thought-provoking story for all ages to enjoy and share together and it contains many peace-building elements:
