Einleitungssatz
TWENTY-ONE YEARS AGO, when my wife, Margaret, and I first moved up to the country from New York City and bought an eighteenth-century farmhouse in Pleasant Valley, New York, not far from Pough-keepsie, we didn't give much thought to our new neighbors, who were mostly hardworking dairy farmers of seventeenth-century Dutch or English stock and, while not exactly unfriendly, were reluctant to enter into conversation with people who didn't raise Holsteins and weren't interested in the price of milk.

'The Fragile Flag' is, without question, the best book I have ever read. The well potrayed main character is a young and vulnerable girl named Georgie. When she finds out the President is planning on launching a bomb that can destroy the entire world, she takes it upon herself to walk from her home in Concord, Mass to the White House with only the company of her brother and sister. No one thought that she could make it. No one believed she'd be joined by 16,000 other children. And no one dreamed that a

an important book for parents to discuss with their children
1. November 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
I read this book many years ago and I still have a copy on my shelf. I think all parents who have strong feelings about nuclear disarmament should read this to their children and use it as a jumping off point to discuss nuclear weapons, war, and the impact that softspoken leaders like Mahama Ghandi and little Georgie (the book's main character) can have when our nations' leaders let fear prevail over morality. I also believe it reminds those who seek to use the flag as a symbol of blind patriotism and allegiance to American military actions that pacifists can be patriots, too. There is so much to carry away from this simple, but elegantly written book that an elementary or junior high school student can understand and appreciate... it certainly speaks to many of the issues that are being debated in the current political climate.
