As they grow up, some are wounded, traumatized, and hardened, until they find ways to hide in the darkness of anger, loneliness, and violence against themselves and others.

My books provide tools for living in harmony with others, and the Earth, so children can be happier and healthier, and grow up to be the creative, insightful, resilient, and thoughtful citizens and leaders our society and communities need.Published writings:The Barnyard Buddies STOP for Peace, published by Growing Communities for Peace, 2017The Compassionate Rebel: Energized by Anger, Motivated by Love, published by Growing Communitiesfor Peace, 2002.Expanding the Circle: Teen Mentor Service Project Adult Facilitator Manual, 20004-H Meeting Handbook a collaborative effort with the University of Minnesota Extension ServiceWashington County, published by the University of Minnesota Extension, 2001Peacemaker's A, B, Cs for Young Children: A guide for teaching conflict resolution with a peace table,published by Growing Communities for Peace, 1995view less
