The Peace & Equality Book Collection brought together diverse writers and illustrators from the United States to create 10 books in just four weeks. The books, aimed at children ages 3-8, explore themes related to creating a more peaceful and just world, with the goal of recognizing the work we must continue to do as a society to create social, political, economic, and cultural systems grounded in peace and equality. Four Academy of Art grads were tapped to illustrate four titles and Academy instructor Julie Downing served as an art advisor for the project. In this special episode, we get to hear from them and the authors of these unique and fascinating books. For more about these great artists and authors check out their websites.
