![]() I also struggle to see pizza uniting the world because not every one can eat pizza. It can be difficult for even two people to agree on toppings-let alone a whole family. Can families even agree among themselves on pizza? For example, there's the question of crust: thin, hand-tossed, deep dish. I found the book to have a ridiculous premise. Who would ever admit to wishing for something besides world peace though?! The Mama pictures world peace as "a world filled with kindness and love and no fighting." By the end of the book the fact that every single person "ate until their bellies were full and everyone was happy" brought about a "world filled with kindness and love and no fighting." I also found this one to be a little too wordy. My thoughts: This is a gimmick-driven picture book. Will a pizza for every family usher in world peace?! ![]() Her wish does come true, but not exactly in the way she expects. ![]() ![]() Premise/plot: When Mama wishes for world peace, her sneeze interrupts the wish. It was not the brightest nor the biggest in the sky that night, but it was still a true wishing star. Mama found such a star, the first to be seen in more than one hundred years. First sentence: The tall hill with the cherry trees and the soft grass for chairs was the best place to look for a wishing star. ![]()
